Default Gear Lube Study

Though the gear oil study is nearly fourteen years old, still relevant today. The report could be biased. If you have doubts about the report you're welcome to conduct the studies yourself.

A Study of Automotive Gear Lubes AMSOIL Drivetrain Division (September 2007)

Study of the Gear Rattle Phenomena in Automotive Powertrain Systems (2014)

Experimental Study of Castor Oil Based Lubricant for Automotive Applications (2014)

This seems trolly. No real point being attempted.

It's documentation for those who question what type of gear lube to use. Seems that both you and Ricktwuhk are trolling. Learning to read might help you.

My point was that you had not stated a point. What's your point, and why did you add the snarky bit at the end, above?

Your point is only to argue about nothing. I posted a good analytical report. I made a suggestion if you doubt the information then conduct a test yourself. You need to grow up.

You don't have many posts so I don't know much about your posting style. Didn't really know why you posted that and didn't expect the response. It's not for me. Good luck.

Well, I don't live on the internet/forums. Perhaps I could have been better at elaborating what the documents were, I believed I was being concise and provide valid information. The URLs are direct links to credible sources (websites), no foolery. The documents pertain to everyone who owns a 2WD/4WD dif vehicle.
