Yep. Great stuff. Highly recommended. And redline for the diff too. |
Thanks, Im guessing I can find those at Autozone right? or maybe Pepboys...
|
Highly unlikely. Order from Z1. Make sure you order 4 new crush washers as well.
|
Looking at the redline website, is the same gear oil used from both the diff and manual transmission?
|
Nope. MT85 for the tranny, 75w90 for the diff if remember right. There's a DIY here for both. Take a look to confirm the right weights and quantities before you order. Buy one extra each.
|
And the washers, 2 for the transmission and 2 for the gear, 4 total right? (just read the right ups)
Only thing is, I dont trust jack stands lol. What if the jack stand fail and I get crushed! |
Jack stands are fine if you buy decent ones and put them in the right places. I've had more ramps fail than jack stands. And you need the car level to fill it right, so ramps are out.

Remember to open the fill plugs before you open the drain plugs. You don't want to find out the fill is seized after you empty it out.

Guys, I dont feel like ordering these fluids online... I am thinking about getting Royal Purple at Pepboys. It seems to be just as good, and a little more expensive.
Any thoughts? |

I dont know, I think I will be stubborn and go with Royal Purple.
Also on a side note, on the Redline website both the gear and manual transmission oil is referred to as "gear oil" is it essentially the same thing? Here is what I will be getting... for the Tran Royal Purple Synchromax Synthetic MTF Quart | Product Details | Pep Boys for the Diff Royal Purple Max Gear 75W90 Synthetic Quart | Product Details | Pep Boys |
Go for it. There's only tons of information out there about why Royal Purple is garbage with a great marketing program. It's your car.
Go over to the forum I mentioned. It's eye opening. The right fluids cost a little more, but you only need to change them every 15-30k miles. Do it right the first time. |
But should I use the 75W90 Gear oil for both the trans and diff? or should I use the other fluid for the trans?
Ive read several other websites saying that gear oil is used on both? |
