    Diff Fluid

    So I ordered fluids for my tranny and diff. I ended up getting redline MTL and redline MT-90. I know the MTL goes in the tranny, so i did that. I was looking at the bottle for teh MT-90 and saw no mention of use in a differential. Did I end up with the wrong stuff?

    MT-90 is more common in use for transmissions.

    Try to get their 75-90 gear oil. It's safe for LSD and everything.

        I haven't done a proper photoshoot and another teaser thread would not be worth it. Good photos to come.

          I have a 3.73 limited slip and I have no idea of what is in it right now and I would like to replace the fluid in it. I dont want to wait for something to show up so I'm looking for something that I can get in town that will do the job well. Any suggestions?

          also, if there is anything I can do while im in there that will help it the diff lock a little harder, that would be excellent.
