Lucas Oil in Diffs
Based on an extensive comparison of gear lubes I read on line I wouldn't use Lucas at all. They finished at or near the bottom on almost every test.
If you want the winner, it was Amsoil 75W90.
For the record I have nothing to do with Amsoil, just stating what the compare I read revealed.
I use Valvoline 75W90 in front/rear diff and Tcase, it was a mid-pack finisher in test, but I am 100% on road and it works well in my app.
If I was severely putting my rig to test frequently off road , or towing, etc. I would go Amsoil.
Take it for what it's worth.
