Well, my LBC takes 30W motor oil.
I've also changed the oil out 5 times int he last 2 months and I can bottle
and sell the stuff as glitter. Obviously something is getting all chewed up.
So, I figured what the hell.
I filled it up with a mixture of Castrol 100% full synthetic and 1 pint of
Dura-Lube Automatic/manual Transmission fluid additive.
I really notice a big difference. Smoother feeling in all respects.
I would think that the rear axel will benefit just as much.
I hear that Amsoil is a really great product to use in place of conventional
gear oils.
