Well its time for an oil change. im going with 20-50w royal purple for the motor. but i cant make up my mind for the tranny and diff. The diff has an LSD. what kind do you think i should use. i know that redline, neo, and royal purple are good, but i cant make up my mind. also is there anyother oil that will be good compare to those that i mention. thanks.

10W30 should be fine for the motor. For the tranny, use Redline MT90 gear oil, for the Diff use Redline 75W90. (it is LSD ready, no additives needed.)
