Hey Mike,

Just FYI, AMSOIL's gear lubes do have slip lock already added in the product so extra usually isn't needed, but there is a rare case when they still might get some chatter. Then adding a little more should take care of it.....just ask Chad(DM).

Default great stuff

I love AMSOIL, i run it in my truck i have it in the rears and the motor, i'm running the 15-40 marine full synthetic in the motor and severe gear 75-90 in the rears. i noticed a slight increase in fuel mileage.

why does it not state this on the package? I don't see anywhere that sates that. Might have been a little cranky last night when I got home too. Blew my tire at the end of the track at 103 and had to wait like 1.5 hrs for the tow truck to take me home. But still went 13.00 for like my tenth run of the night

Not sure why they don't. I found out by conversation with the head of the drivetrain fluids.

it would help when putting a list together for a guys whole truck. I did this take off for a couple people and both had lsd's and I figure they both need it.. Better safe then sorry.
