Redline MT-90 would be all i use. Never had a problem. 64k, going strong with no metal shavings on the drain plug. Amsoil makes great stuff too.

Amsoil. I did not like the Redline product for my trans, t-case or diffs.

redline cocktail 2 MT-90 and 1 MTL its perfect for any weather especially cold winter places. Its important to take the weather into considiration cause it makes the trans last longer when proper fluids are used.

Please, if you're going to bash a product, give a factual reason why you didn't like it........I hate seeing people chime in with opinion, but yet don't offer any real help. Redline and Amsoil is the best stuff on the market. Not sure why you would like one, yet hate another. Again, please give the OP a reason you feel this way.

I have tried oem, synchromesh, redline mt90, and currently am trying out redline lightweight shockproof. I use amsoil in my engine and transfercase, and seeing how both of those were much improved from when they had redline, I will probably just end up having all amsoil fluids in my car eventually.
All these fluids were used in my transmission for both dd and frequent autox. My least favorite had to be oem, followed by synchromesh,then mt90. My reasons for disliking oem was that I was getting high rpm lockout much more often and also made my transmission noisier. synchromesh felt the same as oem, but seemed to help shift better when cold. Mt90 sucked cold but was smooth when warmed up. The lightweight shockproof I am using now feels really good, no complaints, but I just feel amsoil is a much better fluid to use in my trans.
