GL rating for the NV5600

[DGamelin]

Does anybody know what New Venture recommends for a GL rating?

the NV5600 uses syncromesh, which isn't a GL fluid.

The NV-5600 calls for a 5W-30 fluid that meets Chrysler specification MS-9224 and MS 9417. This fluid is NOT GL rated like a Gear lube is.

Ya I see that now, thanks. I just found were to buy to pennzoil synchromesh in a 5 gallon pail. The distributer said that quaker state and pennzoil are one in the same now. Have you herd that?

No I had not heard that. I use the Amsoil brand ,PN MTF-qt, which is a quart container.

I read in this month TDR that someone liked the Torco RTF and has had good results with it. Not sure where you get it though

I like Redline MT90. I was running Redline MTL (SAE 30W) but I like the slightly thicker MT90 (SAE 40W) better. Redline MTL/MT90 PDF

I ran the amsoil for a while and had no problems with it. I tried the MTL and my truck would grind sometimes going into 3rd and 4th when cold. I took the MTL out promptly and went back to OE fluid and have had no issues since. Have not tried the Torco. I might go back to the amsoil or try the torco with my next oil change. The darn dealership just hit me for $19 a quart for the mopar stuff. Rip off and i have fast coolers, so 120 bucks worth of oil doesn't make me too happy.

I went with pennzoil synchromesh, did a lot of research and I belive the is what dodge is using. $7. 29 a qt or $113 for five gallons. I found that pennzoil and quaker state are coming out of the same plaint, I find this disappointing.
