Hello, I've heard many nightmares on angle drives and what is required to cure the problems with them. My understanding is that 20 wt. gear oil is (or was) recommended. I installed Redline "MTF" synthetic gear oil (which is red in color) in my transmission long ago and just for kicks put the same stuff in my angle drive when I thought it was about to quit. Before this oil: the speedo needle would shoot down to zero, then back to 75 on the freeway. After the new oil: everything is stable (relatively). That was almost 2 years ago and I haven't checked it since. Of course, now that I have said this, my angle drive will most likely die tomorrow!

I am not comfortable with the 20 year old factory recommended type with all the innovations that have been made over the years. There are certainly better choices available. I had heard of new red colored type being used recently.
