Thanks, Mike;
Was there an attachment? It did not come through.
I'm using Redline MT90 in the W-58 transmission. =C2=A0We found that the AC=
Delco "Synchromesh" gear oil works well in the Triumph box.

Hi Phil, this is what John at Quantium sent me about trans and diff oils. I=
couldn't find the Sta-lube in the US but had no problem getting a couple o=
f quarts of it via Flea Bay from Canada.
For the diffs we found the CRC Sta-lube brand 85W90 is a high quality GL4 s=
pec oil or you can use the Redline 75W90 synthetic (even though it says GL5=
).
For the transmissions you might want to switch to the Redline MTL or MT90 s=
pec synthetic oils.
