Can you use a synthetic wheel bearing lube? I believe that the requirement is for a SAE 90wt non-synthetic.
Can 75-90 or 80-90 synthetic be used as long as it meets the GL-5 specification?? My unit has a 2003 W22 Chassis. Happpy Motoring. John350

Just make sure that your fluid is SAE 90W GL-5 rated.

thanks Driver. Now the trick is to find SAE 90wt synthetic for the front wheel bearings. It appears that the world is going to Multi-viscosity. Thanks again. John
