Honda fluid

....however, if you have a higher mileage rear end, then try Royal Purple or more frequent fluid changes.


Editted for change in recommendation

Isn't synchromesh for the trans? Or is there a diff fluid by that name too?

I've used Honda and Synchromesh in the trans (at different times obviously) and used LE607 in the diff.

Where do you pick up LE607 from?
