This is correct... Says this in the instructions I received with it......Eaton specifically says to used mineral based oil, not synthetic, with their truetrac differentials.

Eaton will say not to use synthetic, because they don’t know if it will hinder performance, but most all will indeed work. They tend to overcomplicate things.This is correct... Says this in the instructions I received with it......
So you are saying you spent way more money on oil, and it didn't "hinder" performance as the pro. What was the upside to this story?Eaton will say not to use synthetic, because they don’t know if it will hinder performance, but most all will indeed work. They tend to overcomplicate things.
I can tell you on my locker, I run redline shockproof and it works every bit the same as it did with mineral based oil, zero difference at all. Unless you’re running a clutch style differential then that’s always what I recommend.
To use whatever you want.So you are saying you spent way more money on oil, and it didn't "hinder" performance as the pro. What was the upside to this story?

Considering he is using a 9" rear which is # 1 heavier #2 hp parasite, I think using a thicker oil a non issueYou sure are loosing some performance using the thicker conventional oil
Surprised they would say that in their nomenclature
Big mama in her mini van, drinking her 82 oz cola beat me to my supermarket parking spot the other day...... Darn that thick oilYou sure are loosing some performance using the thicker conventional oil
Surprised they would say that in their nomenclature

Does synthetic gear oil stink like the standard stuff, especially after use? I might use Royal Purple if it was grape scented.but aint it purty......
Yeah,conventional gear oil is in a league all it's own in the smell and stain departments. The oder can repel wildlife.Does synthetic gear oil stunk like the standard stuff, especially after use? I might use Royal Purple if it was grape scented.And for CT and ear worm reasons, I'm not going to comment on a nice looking, big rear end. Sir Mix A Lot had a hit about that.
Now a 9" is not THAT BIG...... LOLDoes synthetic gear oil stunk like the standard stuff, especially after use? I might use Royal Purple if it was grape scented.And for CT and ear worm reasons, I'm not going to comment on a nice looking, big rear end. Sir Mix A Lot had a hit about that.
