I took advice from others on this forum and became a big fan of Red Line lightweight shockproof in both. Silky smooth.

Exactly what I run. About to take advantage of the lack of motor in the car to swap the ptu fluid...

Yes. But make sure it is Redline Lightweight Shockproof.

I bought some Amsoil, should I send it back and get the redline?

I believe they are both good products. Honestly it probably comes down to personal preference between the two.

Nah, that's good stuff, too.

100% correct. I like the Redline LWSP because it works great in both the RDU and PTU. Zero issues on my part and I am not nice to my SHO as many of you know.

Call me ignorant, I don't care, I know I'm bad with acronyms...

What's an RDU?

Rear Diff Unit?

 

[luigisho]

Yes! first guess.

Yup, and keep in mind the RDU is actually where all the "AWD transfer action" takes place, not within the PTU. The PTU is, for all intents and purposes, basically just a right-angle gear box that is always turning when the vehicle is in motion.

Good to know, thanks!

I hoping to have ptu fluid changed tomorrow and purchased redline 75w 140, should be ok right? Went to the local parts store to buy RP maxgear but saw the redline! They didn't carry the LWSP.

Amsoil or Redline only stuff I use, can’t go wrong with either......
