    Lubricants in ZF5, BW1356, & Rearends

    Old thread, but @The_Josh_Bear , you talked bout Redline MTL. Which one is it? The Red Line 50205 MTL 75W80 GL-4 Gear Oil like I found on Amazon for $76.99/Gal or some other kind of Redline MTL? Is the 75W80 too thick for our ZF5 & BW1356 Transfercase?
