i'll try the auto RX, i have next to nothing for oil consumption though so i think i'm ok there but it cant hurt. i've got a 50wt syn in the trans but i am putting a nother trans in soon. (all the gears work right in the new one! LOL) i'll do syn. in the motor, trans, transfer, and diffies all at once. how should i mix the auto RX in the trans, transfer, and diffies for a cleaning before i switch?

Better read the instructions on the website for that, I don't want to mess you up. I'm not quite at myself right now, screwed my back all up and I'm seeing double -cuss . They have different ratios for different types of gearboxes and diffs. you'll need to click over to the transmission site and find the instructions for gearboxes and diffs

I have been using amsoil in all my units for over 300,000 mi on some. Engine oil, T-case, Auto trans, and diffs and I will swear by it.

I'd be leary of running a 40wt motor oil in a trans that is expecting 80wt gear oil. If the T-19 spec'd ATF, I'd agree but it doesn't. Also, remember that Delo 400 is API CJ-4. That stuff is emissions oil, and no longer our engines best friend. Go with a CI or earlier oil like Brad Penn H.D. Select.
