Just curious what folks think about using Pennzoil Synchromesh manual transmission fluid in the front diff.

I changed out the rear diff yesterday with 75/90 LSD.

Was thinking about changing the front today/this week-thought I had plain 75/90, but turns out its 2 bottles of Synchromesh-no weight listed. My phone just bounces me to a useless Pennzoil mobile phone site...


Thanks!

No, Synchromesh is intended for use in manual transmissions only. Use GL-5 gear oil in your differentials only.
