[QUOTE="Jimmysidecarr, post: 10754298, member: 11681"] I have been tracking threads all over and have been studying the feed back on the different solutions that have been tried. I would love to get some additional feed back regarding fluid changes that worked and fluid changes that didn't. Please give a little back ground as well, since driving a grinding trans for an extended period of time and then changing to a different fluid may not have an outstanding outcome if the blocker rings or synchros were hurt a bit before the fluid was eventually tried. My understanding is that the factory fill is the full synthetic Ford, XT-M5-QS, 75W-90 gear oil. The March TSB recommends using a slightly lighter Ford fluid. For example here is a MT-82 owner who has switched to Royal Purple Max Gear 75W-90 and got good results. I would like to know if that was the only fluid that he has tried or were there others. He suggests not using the Synchromax but I don't know if he tried it or not, so I am wondering what was the outcome of those who did try the Synchromax or any other fluids. I have followed this thread and have heard about some shift issues being clutch related as well.
