My gearbox is whinning like a fu*ker - but I can't find where to put oil in it to shut the damn thing up!

Can anybody direct me to where to fill the gearbox with oil on a B2200?

There is a check plug on the side of the gearbox that you can add oil thru. It's kind of a bitch to fill thru the side without a pump though. You can cure that problem by pulling your shifter and dumping oil in the hole until it comes out the check/fill hole in the side of the trans. When oil comes out the check plug hole you will know that yer full.

Okay I did that and filled it... but the the noice hasn't abated... It is noicy as anything in 1st 2nd 3rd and 5th but strangly enough is quite as a mouse in 4th... Seems weird to me - anyone else come across this issue?

the reason it's quiet in 4th is that it is direct drive so there is no gear reduction or enlargement when in 4th. I am sorry to say that I think your tranny is on it's last legs
