Hey recon, how much would the oils you mention cost? Been looking for good quality synthetic. Can you buy it in bulk? I've seen on here that you can run 0w 40 synthetic in the rubicon as long as you don't reside in the desert SW region. The manuals spec 10w 40 but that is a little thick at -40 F up here in South Dakota. I would think as long as its a 40 and wet clutch comp then it should be OK. Whats your take on this? Or should I custom mix 2.5w 40 by using some 10w in the 0w? Our average temp up here in the summer is about 80 F. I only use it to ride around town, pull an occasional drag, and herbicide application. I only put 20-30 hours on it in the Summertime and if its over 80 F, I rarley use it. I put alot more hours on it in the winter, mostly temps under 20 F. Thanks in advance for your input.
