it's a good diff oil as long as you don't live somewhere it can get cold. and yup, you can buy it here in the gofastlabs from the site. just click the "marketplace" button at the top

The company's name is Lubrication Engineers.....i.e. "LE" 607. The "Almasol" part of the nomenclature is the proprietary name of the friction reducer component of this lubricant. I think this is good stuff.

Scablander....yeah i was wondering what the "Almasol" was thanks for the info.

Wisconsin... I live in the deep south so i dont think cold will be a problem.
Although we do have 20s at night in the winter on occasions, this is pretty rare
so i should be ok......thoughts ??

Filthy Beast, I don't think you'll have any problems running LE 607 in the deep south. I understand LE 607 90W has a pour point of -11F. Some of the guys in Canada run Mobil 75W-90 synthetic to protect during their severe winters, but we're talking lots of days with temps below 0 degrees F. I know it gets pretty cold on rare occasions down south, and I'd just take it easy for a few miles until your diff fluid comes up to temp.
