Anyone try valvoline HP gear oil in their LSD TCase?
I wanted to know if anyone has tried the Valvoline High performance gear oil in their evo Tcase. I know it has strict requirments but the bottle says its for all hypoid and LSD differentials and its is GL5 certified.

Maybe no one has. I think if you are not going to use the Diaqueen then you should go synthetic. I use Redline 80w140 which was recomended by Jon at TRE.

IMO with the small capacity of the acd and rear diff, a $40 bottle of diaqueen lasts plenty long. That is of course if your asking as a means to save money
