    I have it in my front and rear diff. I used it in my Lexus IS300's transmission and rear diff too. Good stuff.

    Did the quoted person realize you have to include an LSD additive for use in the differential?

    The additive has nothing to do with what Chase at East Coast Gear Supply is trying to say. Besides that point..I'm sure he knows what he is saying when it comes diff fluid and gears. Maybe you should visit eastcoastgearsupply.com

    Didn't realize he was a vendor specializing in all things gears. I certainly hope he knows what he's talking about lol

    Personally, I've run it in two different vehicles and never had a problem. In fact, the IS300 had gear changing issues and when I switched to Royal Purple there was a noticeable improvement in shifting.

    Not sure if I'm just lucky or I'm doing something more right than most but I'm curious now; what DOES ECGS recommend?
