how much does your dealer charge for it? what is the best oil to run in the diffs, let me know what oil or fluids i can buy that are better than what dealer will run, i wanna put the best in that i can , i think someone said royal purple let me know

I just did Royal Purple in the transmission, diff, transfer case and engine at 40k miles. I have noticed smoother shifting in the transmission.

Make sure you use a 75/90w synthetic gear oil in both diffs, especially in colder climates. I personally have had lots of positive feedback from customers using mobil one in trans and t-case, but have had no experience with royal purple. Only seen one customer use it as I don't believe it is readily available in Canada(he had it shipped from the US). Just another opinion.

Royal Purple's web site says it's available in 32 cities / 5 provinces in Canada.

I paid $7.50US a quart for gear oil and ATF, and $5.50 for motor oil at a local Mazda racing shop.

Good to know, thanks.

How many quarts of ATF, and how many of gear lube? I cant find it in the manual.
