Never been. I'll go. Why not. A few of us were discussing making a day to work on rear diffs... but I haven't heard anything about it since.

Let me know when you want to go... I have classes Tuesday's and Wednesday's. Free every day other than those.

I'm goin TDY for a few days on sunday and Alex mentioned a TDY coming up soon for him too, so I'm not sure if doin all the fluids together is gonna happen.

I've still got 1k miles til its time to do the fluids plus, I think I'll be doin my diff "upgrade" at home since my car will most likely be down for a couple days.

If you want man, you can come over and we can take care of your fluid change(s) next weekend (30 Jul).

What fluids were you planning to change out again?

I need to change the fluid in my rear differential... and pretty much any other fluid, since my wife's Evo needs to be caught up on maintenance. There is no better time than now that she is gone for a few weeks. I am willing to accept any timeline that anyone presents, because I no longer wish to learn things on my own. Having you guys help me is the best way for me to learn anything and everything. Looking things up in the forums is fine as far as reference, but it is not the same as hands-on learning.

Thanks for offering assistance.

Well, round up all the fluids you'll be needing and we'll knock it out!

Most people recommend Mitsubishi gear oil for the differentials and I have used this as well. Its perfect for the daily driver and can be found on alot of evo vendor websites.

If you want a better quality fluid or something that will handle more abuse then there are many options. Right now I've got AMSOIL in the transmission and Mitsu gear oil in both diffs, but I'll be changing over to full AMSOIL when my next 1k miles is up.

Alex, if your board change the fluids in my TC and Diffs for fun.

My tour of the 10th century (mid-east) is wonderful as always, next stop the land that time forgot.

Don't forget our Grand Opening is 26 August. 94.1 will be there for the ticket raid, Dawn is trying to get the blood mobile, trying to make sure it's legal to give away free beer/wine with purchase of anything (it's a Palm Harbor thing), we are also putting together some giveaways (cellphones and accessories and stuff from neighboring businesses). I'll post more on FB at Handy Wireless, LLC.
