We have been using AMSOIL 50 weight long run transmission oil in trans and t/case for several years also. Cooler running temp in summer conditions for the t/case, cold weather operation better at start up, significantly easier shifting in the transmission, no stiff shifting while waiting on oil to warm up. Easier oil flow in cold temps means better lubrication in all components. It is a proven fact that most wear takes places during cold starts, you can actually feel the difference on a cold morning start. We run AMSOIL 75-90 in the axles.
Good to know thanks! The engine in the truck I bought isn't finished breaking in and I don't know what he has in the tranny so I will just change it.
