If you have a stock TR differential, you want to use GL4 gear oil. There 
are brass bits in there (planet gear thrust washers, for example).

I realize that this point is moot owing to most folks on the list running 
Quaifes, Detroit Lockers and stuff like that which have zero brass, But I 
just thought I'd float the idea...
