A lot of the guys say (but it has to fight it's way in all that lube) it has run that way for going on 3 years with all most daily use. I have used remote and contact temp gages on it, it never even gets warm at the casing. The blade in the water/paper bath and the tires get a higher temp.

That is exactly what I would have thought would happen. Water will displace the oil the grease will displace the water. Filling it with bearing lube is what I ended up doing on my e-150 rear end, have not had a drop of water come out of the overflow tube. I had 3 new seals behind the yoke but water still found it's way in and it would it drip out gear oil and water of the overflow. Before the lube fill up job and the gear hum is gone now. I run a fixed position mixer on rollers and it flat got quiet after the lube.

I don't see how it would hurt but 90 weight gear oil is hard to beat.
