Default tranny/diff oil additives

i do believe some of these brands of oils we use need to be tested and seen.

what do you think?

Hope you enjoyed the article.

wow, there are so many discussion going on with these oils..

i do think that test was somewhat grade school level with no real control, or even with real tranny/diff gear.

but i just read few people using it on their hard running ford; you know how bad they can be, and all oil looks fine during flush..

so i'm a bit hesitant to change anything yet but it's someone to research on before adding any mods..

if we can make 1 inch thick hd tv, i don't see why we can't make engine/gear oil that actually smooth out driving experience.

Here's the link for some discussion of the topic. I never owned ford so don't tell me how it's different..

do the readings, atver1992 seem to have great insight on Lucas..

After literally hundreds of class-action lawsuits over oil additives, you think people would learn. Just use quality fluids...
