Apparently the oil of choice on the forum is either swepco 201 or mobil 1 synthetic which is not the usual mobil 1 you see in stores (some other kind of truck formula?).
I have the regular 75W/90 mobil 1 sythetic in my G50 as I don't think it makes that much difference personally from the truck formula. My G50 is a little stiff when cold but warms up quick and shifts great.

for years I used a Redline mixture of 85-90 and med. shock oil.
Now running Delvac - bought from Charles N. both seem to work fine.. DE/track and AX and DD. the Swepco is listed by many as very good.... if you have LSD could be a special type is needed. |
