Product Description

Extreme-pressure protection at its best, with the lowest friction co-efficient on the market
Temperatures are drastically reduced.
Increase the thickness of the oil film between gear teeth and protect gear teeth from shock loading.
Metal-to-metal contact is reduced, as is gear noise.
It has a unique solid dispersion that cushions gear teeth, preventing tooth breakage and allowing lower viscosities to be used.

Questions & Answers

Would you recommend this for a cat compact track loader (skid steer)'s final drive, which requires SAE 85w-90? api gl-140 api gl-140 api gl-140 ?

This is, in my opinion, the best gear oil available, and it covers the 85w140 temperature range.

In Tundra diffs and transfer case, how does this compare to Redline 75w90 high performance gear oil?

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.

Is it possible to use it in a 4th generation Ram 1500 differential?

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.

Can you use redline heavy shockproof gear oil in the dana 44 and dana 30 limited slip differentials on a 2000 Jeep Grand Cherokee, and do you need to add friction?

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.

Selected User Reviews For Red Line 58205 Heavy ShockProof Gear Oil - 1 Gallon

In my race car, it has been proven to be superior
5/5

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.

REDLINE! Fast shipping and delivery, not much to say about the product; however, do your research and you will find that it is by far the best for my back end

This lube is top-of-the-line, and I use it in all three of my Harley-Davidson transmissions, as well as my truck's differential
5/5

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.

The product is excellent, but the shipping is terrible! Anyone who has used Red Line fluids knows they are the best, and I have purchased several gallons of the Heavy Shockproof Gear Oil over the years with no complaints
3/5

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.

Oil that is slick
5/5

It's lubricating oil, and I won't fully appreciate its benefits until after 100k miles.

In a Harley 5 and 6 speed, it works perfectly
5/5

This is an excellent oil that quiets the transmission and makes shifting much smoother.

No, the container arrived broken, with oil spilled all over it in the shipping box
3/5

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.
