Anyone who’s changed gear lube in an ATV or UTV knows the frustration: tough-to-reach fill holes, bloody knuckles and gear lube spilled everywhere. The situation is nearly as bad when changing lower-unit gear lube in your marine motor: a messy lubricant pump that leaks gear lube all over the place.

The award-winning AMSOIL easy-pack makes tricky gear lube installations easier, offering less waste, less mess and less frustration. Its flexible design allows you to access fill holes in tight spaces and around obstacles that prevent use of the rigid conical bottles common to the gear-lube market. Traditionally, enthusiasts use a gear-lube pump in these scenarios. But that’s one more tool to buy. Plus, much of the gear lube is wasted inside the pump and it makes a mess during storage.

The AMSOIL easy-pack solves these problems. The following AMSOIL powersports products are now available in the easy-pack:

Why Upgrade to AMSOIL Performance in Your ATV/UTV

ATV and UTV owners invest thousands of dollars in their machines and accessories to improve utility and performance. Owners often purchase upgrades, including roof panels, doors, winches, skid plates and snow plows. These upgrades improve utility and performance but increase gear and bearing stress due to the added weight.

In addition, owners often use their machines for towing or hauling, which further increases harmful heat and stresses gears and bearings. In this scenario, it’s vital to use a high-quality gear lube for increased protection.

AMSOIL Synthetic ATV/UTV Transmission & Differential Fluid provides another performance upgrade that helps owners safely and confidently push their machines to the limit. After spending thousands of dollars on a new UTV or ATV and equipping it with expensive upgrades, it makes sense to upgrade to AMSOIL performance.

Why Change Marine Gear Lube?

Marine motors are constantly exposed to water. If water infiltrates the lower unit and contaminates the gear lube, it can cause foam, which weakens the fluid film and leads to wear. Water contamination also invites corrosion, which acts like sandpaper and scours bearing and gear surfaces.

Frequent throttle bursts, meanwhile, concentrate tremendous pressure on the pinion gear and the forward and reverse gears. The gear lube fluid film can rupture, especially if it’s been weakened due to water contamination, leading to metal-to-metal contact.

To avoid breakdowns and get the most out of your time on the water, service marine lower units seasonally. AMSOIL Synthetic Marine Gear Lube delivers advanced outboard protection against power loss and gear wear, even with up to 15 percent water contamination.*
