Rear gear oil for LSD

Great time to get it done. Get your nose plug ready, it'll be gross! Wipe off the magnet really well before reinstalling the drain bolt.

Put plug magnet in threads on an angle and swivel around and take back out, will pick up some more metal filings

That's the same fluid I run, but I buy it by the gallon jug since the pumps fit it. I have changed my transmission twice and differential thrice and haven't found the need to replace the crush washers yet. They still torque down and seal fine.

Amsoil vs. Redline really isn't an argument, but is more of a comparison of the best two available on the market. Slight differences, but you truly can't go wrong. Redline uses better base oils (Group V) while Amsoil has the stronger additive package (Group IV).

I'd give Redline the edge in high-temp performance while Amsoil gets the nod for cold winter weather conditions.

Great time to replace the cover to gain larger fluid capacity and better cooling.

I was thinking about that, but I’m a little low on funds so I was gonna do the rear support brace the one aluminum oil pan and a gizmo under shroud for now. Maybe next time I change it the fluid I’ll do. The cover
