EDIT: After gravity did it's job getting the old fluid out I jacked up the driver's side rear wheel and spun it by hand with the trans in N :cowboy: This helped drain out another cup of old diff Fluid, just to be complete.

Hi guys!

I need an urgent advise. I have 2005 T4R V8 Limited. I just changed the fluid in all 3 boxes: front, rear diffs and transfer case to synthetic Red Line MT-90 75W90 Gear Oil. I got it here: http://www.fcpeuro.com/products/gea...d-line-50304?gclid=CI7syaP3qr8CFZJbfgodIEMAqA
I just noticed that this fluid is rated as GL-4 where as the manual suggests GL-5 type fluids. I'm not sure what to do at this point, do I need to drain this fluid once again and use the correct stuff or having GL-4 is just fine?
Please help!
Big thanks in advance.

Yea I am. It took six quarts of 75w-90 to fill up the 2 diffs and transfer case.

When I go to the mobil 1 synthetic, do the front/rear diffs and xfer case need to be flushed or can I just let them drain via gravitiy on a level area and fill it back up with the synthetic?

No need to flush anything.
