Absolutely not. And I would take it out of the trans too. Not a fan of that fluid. And that is NOT what goes into the TC and diff.

NO!!! First of all, its a transmission fluid (and a crappy one at that) so it doesn't belong in the transfer case or rear differential. SmikEvo is right, don't even put it in your transmission. Its thin and sheers very easily so it provides very little protection.

Mitsu factory specs for the drivetrain
transmission: 75W-85 GL-4
transfer case: 90W GL-5
rear differential: 90W GL-5

No offense, but when I was searching for the same things as you everyone was saying how bad it is.

I just replaced transfer case and rear dif with the OEM Diaqueen fluid, and then AMSOIL in the tranny. Works wonders! I didn't believe the hype at first, but now it was def. worth the $51 spent on tranny fluid. I feel a big difference!

I have used it and hated it.

I personally use Redline MT-90/MTL mix in my transmission and OEM Mitsu DiaQueen 90W LSD in the transfer case and rear differential.

In these threads the OP's are only talking about BG in the Tranny, there is no mention of using it in the TC and diff.

I used BG too - hated it.

Amsoil was what I loved for my Evo.

Used OEM Diaqueen 90 LSD for my TC and Diff - 124k and going strong.

All the threads you listed were from 05/06, quite a few years ago. I don't know if that necessarily matters, but it isn't as relevant as some of the newer 08/09 threads that talk about running Amsoil in the tranny.

I would run OEM fluids in transfer case and rear dif. for sure..and then choose something else for the tranny.
