I put Redline MTL in my R/T and it helped the shifting ALOT. Was wondering if anyone here had ever used it? I know if I try to shift quickly to 3rd gear, either up or down, it'll grind on occasion. Thanks

Put Redline 90 in rear end also

R/t made a world of difference in my 89.

Use both in my 90.

 

sure have and it helped slightly
my trannys just tooo far gone

 

OK, Thanks. I'll try to pick some up and change it next weekend. How many quarts does it take??

i use the big big jug and i use about 3/4 of it

 

its worth the 30 bucks

 

my tranny used to make a large clunk sound when i shifted in the cold and it was hard as a bitch to shift into 2nd. Now everything is smooth and no more clunk! defintely worth the 30$

 

has anyone used sycromesh? i know that alot of the probe guys use it with great results

 

i'm wondering about this also....
my shifter won't spring back to center because it's missing a spring so i'll prolly have to drop the tranny to fix that, but my shifting is kinda notchy and grings in 5th gear as well
should i go ahead and give this a try???

 

YOU PUT THE WRONG WEIGHT OIL IN THERE.
You're supposed to be using MT90, NOT MTL.
If you don't believe me, go contact Redline tech support and ask them which one of their products you're supposed to be using in your FC.
You might initially notice better shifting, but ALL of your gears are going to start scratching due to the lighter-than-recommended transmission oil.
Even Mazda specifically states you need to use *75W90* transmission oil in the FC transmissions.

YEah, I used syncromesh because my 2nd gear synchro was locking me out on speed shifts. I works like a champ, but I highly doubt its good for the transmission. After I did my clutch change, I changed to Redline Lightweight Shockproof. It looks like smurf pee, but I can powershift like no other! Doubt it is very good for my transmission, but then again, I couldnt care less.

 

90w oil is very heavy. I use the RP syncromesh as well and I worry about it b/c it is very thin I mean very thin. I may switch to RL b/c of it.

 

No, the MTL is in my '93 Dodge Daytona IROC R/T. Several people have suggested using it for the A568 tranny. So I should use the MT90? I think we have Mobil 1 75w90 in there now. Thanks
