Just did all 3 fluids with the oem stuff (Diaqueen 75W85 tranny fluid, LSD SAE90 Gear Oil). Running this gear oil for the tc and the rear diff in a Mr is fine right? Only reason i ask is because on lancershop they have the LSD Gear Oil I used and a MR Super Multi Gear Oil. I guess I'm just being paranoid... I'm hoping its fine i used the regular oil and not the super multi gear oil.

John
If you can do an oil change, you can do this. Putting the fluids back in is a little trickier, but not hard. Some people use fluid pumps, but they really aren't necessary and can make a mess if you try to go too fast. Good ol' gravity works just as well.

Rear diff is even easier.

all it says in the manual is use 75W85 for tranny fluid and just LSD for the tc and rear diff. Guess it doesnt make a difference if its the regular or the super multi oil.

RussellM at Mitsubishiparts.net has the oil for the 6-speed tranny. I should know, he's my sole OEM parts/fluid provider

I know you aren't in CA, but I was quoted by San Rafael Mitsubishi:

Rear Diff: $50
Transfer Case: $38
Transmission: $86

So about $175.

not sure of the prices off hand, you can check their site. in my case convenience > price though plus i'd rather support local guys.
