Kaaz & Redline Light Weight S.Proof T.Case Mixture?

Hi,
can i mix Kaaz lsd gearbox oil with a liter of Redline light weight shock proof?

My intention is to gave a better lubricant on high temperature thereby prolong the the gearbox life span...

What do you think?

where are you exactly using kaaz oil?
the gearbox, transfer or rear diff?

it was my understanding that Kaaz oil is used for clutch type diffs. And i would assume the only clutch type diff you have is the rear diff, unless you have a Cusco front (which is in the transfer).

Cheers, Mike

i'm sure it's ok.
it's mineral oil though isn't it?

i wouldn't mix mineral and synthetic (redline) oils.
i run a mix of 75W90 and 75W140 oils, but they are both Motul gear oil and states it's ok to mix.
I've run a mix of Lightweight shockproof and Heavyweight shockproof before and there was no problems.

Check these oil recommendations out
