Well, after the rebuild, the gears are nice and smooth. I had the rebuild from TRE. I have decided to change out the tranny fluid; i think ive decided on the 2:1 solution (2qts of MT90 and 1 of MTL...redline) I still have to investigate though...i had an LSD inserted and am not sure if the front LSD takes gear oil from the tranny sump...if so, I need to know if the same oil will do the job. I hear great reviews from the 2:1 solution....everything else is going to be OEM fluid
