Gear box, T-case and rear diff flush

Some time back i had the stupid idea of putting Shock proof Red line in the Gear box, T-case and rear diff. I'd like to flush it out and replace it with OEM or REDLine MT-90. Is there any special product that i can use to flush the the old oil out?

I don't think I'd want to flush with anything that I wouldn't already want in there. it should NOT be in the gear box. or use cheaper mt to flush it out, and continue until clean mt comes out. that stuff is sticky.

t-case it's okay to have shock proof. rear diff I'd just change with a normal gl5 moving forward

Tcase and rear diff just change twice (change, put like 20 miles on it, and change again) and you'll be good. Gearbox I would do 3-4 changes on, shock proof sticks to EVERYTHING and there's lots of stuff for it to stick to in the trans. Also oil passages that it can clog.


You can flush the gear box with cheap 10w40 motor oil. Just drive it easy, go about 15-20 miles in between changes.

Do NOT use Shockproof. I destroyed a transmission using that stuff
