I just looked it up and the g60 is auto trans additive, the g70 is manual gearbox and diff additive. Will this be ok to add to mineral dex3 or do you think I should go with a synthetic Nulon oil as well?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjacobs Member 143 Member For: 11y 21d Gender: Male Posted 10/09/15 08:38 PM Author Share Posted 10/09/15 08:38 PM I might try the red line lightweight shockproof oil possibly with the Nulon additive unless anyone can advise against it. I have to admit I was a bit surprised when Mal said to use dex, I really want to try something different Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's dead quite at idle, but very loud when my foot is on the clutch allowing the plates to rattle. Mine also has large rollover noise at low rpm in higher gears that feels more like a transfer vibration from the solid plates. Also a solid shifter transfers alot of noise. running penrite 70w75 filled through the reverse switch. 4.8l. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ahh so many options, gotta make a decision today as to what I'm gonna put in it, pretty keen to try this g70 stuff if Matt had success with it, just don't know what oil to run, I'm thinking I'll try the super expensive red line stuff and if that doesn't make it any better next time I'll try something else, process of elimination haha. I do have a ripshifter with a solid mounted stick so I'm going to put some rubber between the stick and shifter as well and see if that takes some of the noise away. So you reckon an extra full liter gaz? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've always run that qty to try and stop roll over but I'm 99% sure my roll over comes from the clutch. My old button clutch the springs in the plate were loose and caused most of my issues.

The tr6060 needs a lighter weight oil. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
