Gear oil question
#5
you can use it, I wouldn't. --- just me..
here's the read out of that GL at Redline's site that states .
http://www.redlineoil.com/product.aspx?pid=140&pcid=7
Recommended for Nissan 350Z and 370Z (also most Maxima, Altima & Sentra), Mitsubishi Evolution, Hyundai, and Kia applications
Many NV4500 truck transmission applications like Chevy Silverado and Dodge Ram, for Chrysler spec MS-9070
Safe for brass synchros, as it lacks the reactive sulfurs found in most GL-5 oils that cause damage
Offers quicker shifts, perfect synchronizer coefficient of friction
Eliminates notchy shifting, even when cold
High performance gear protection and longer synchro life
Recommended for GL-1, GL-3 and GL-4 applications as well as where most special synchromesh fluids are specified
Satisfies the gear oil viscosity requirements of 75W, 80W, 85W and motor oil viscosities of SAE 30 and 5W30
I am not going to say what I've used for the last 40K miles cause I am not going to turn this into another what's the best - oil thread.
But, I will say for me an oil that even Redline say's it equal to a SAE 30 or 5W30 oil is not something I'd put in my Tranny..

Do tell, Im not trying to come off like a know it all, I'd love to have that discussion. The purchase was an accident because I didn't read the label and I haven't put it in yet.
