                          There have been a large number of us that have had very good luck with Eneos gear oil. It is also cheaper then any of the synthetic transmission fluid that parts stores sell. It is available at tintmasters for IIRC $11 a quart(do not quote me on this).

                          PM me for:
                          Sandblasting(I use glass beads)
                          Diesel repairs or performance products.

                              I was actually looking for something too. I feel like I'm working out when I'm shifting.

                                let your car warm up a bit before you go driving.

                                  Cause your tranny fluid is going to "warm up" sitting at idle.... It may increase in temp a small amount from the eat of the engine.

                                      Sure is...especially since Kevin owns SLD, does a lot of things with SLS....totally shameless of him to plug another shop.

                                      BTW, he meant Eneos (the brand that TM sells)
