This is, in my opinion, the best gear oil available, and it covers the 85w140 temperature range.
I have a 1996 4Runner with heavy shockproof diffs, manual transmission, and transfer case, which I've had for over 200k miles of off-road use. I'd say it's smoother and cooler than the standard weight, but even for my off-road use, it's overkill. Heavy shockproof is something I strongly recommend.
It works great in a 1976 Dodge W200 with limited slip axels, a Dana 60, and a Dana 44, and I do a lot of off-roading. My power wagon is on the road.
Dana 44 is the vehicle I'm using. Dana 70, both with limited slip lockers, have been trouble-free for over four years. My truck is a 1976 Dodge W200 full-time 4x4 with a 440 engine, 727 automatic transmission, and 37x12 tires. All five MTs are heavy-duty and are frequently used off-road. I hope this information is helpful; the product itself is excellent.

In my Porsche 911 race car, I'm using this. I was averaging 75 miles per hour. There are a lot of trans problems in 90 synthetic oil. This stuff is opaque and sticks to the parts like glue, necessitating the use of a solvent to remove it! This is the most suitable option.
The bikes shift more smoothly, making it easier to find neutral. The truck has 204000 miles on it, and switching to Red Line silenced the gear noise, plus it's a true red.
br>br>My problem is with the way Amazon ships the product; the most recent batch arrived shattered. Gear oil was dripping from the top to the bottom of the box. The gear oil had saturated the container. I discovered I only had about a quart left in the bottom after removing the cap (which had been smashed open and the seal had been broken). I'm getting a refund from Amazon today. Let's hope they do a better job the next time around.
It's lubricating oil, and I won't fully appreciate its benefits until after 100k miles.
This is an excellent oil that quiets the transmission and makes shifting much smoother.
I know Red Line products are better than many others on the market because I've been using them for years on my motorcycles. br>I will not order from this shipper again.
Extremely high-quality product with extra thick and thin capabilities in one package! Highly recommended for the applications mentioned! Simply the best option.
