I have been using Redline Lt. Shock Proof gear oil and it is performing very well. It is a lighter viscosity than what MB calls for but then it's a very good oil.

Where can i get that stuff at jeff online??

Anybody else on what they used for Differential oil??

Should i just go with the stock stuff, since MBis uses good quality fluids anyways.

thanks

I would guess the stock stuff is very good also.

I just try to lower the frictional losses of the drivetrain by using these High performance oils that are lighter in weight.

And I do think it makes a small difference.

Besides, when the rear diff blows it will give me the chance to put a 3.46:1 rear ring and pinon in.
