Howdy folks
I am building an XG Ute with a Barra (how original eh?) Basically I’ve had mixed opinions from google about power steering fluid so hopefully someone can tell me for sure the correct type for these Barras. I am more of a 4x4 bloke (diesel mechanic) which have all usually used your average power steering fluid or atf dex 3. What’s the go? |

As far as im aware you need proper power steering fluid in BA. I use the genuine s**t.
E series you can get away with auto fluid.

I got sick of paying $19 for 1 litre so I switched to using either of these 2
1. Castrol VMX-M 75W-85 for a normal mineral based oil 2. Gulf Western / Nulon 75/85 gear oil Full Synthetic Both work great, less whine at full lock too. |
