Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) Royal Purple

[Wyatt 1]

Anyone have a dealer or salesmen that they prefer or is it just search the web for suppliers? Thanks Henry,

Check NAPA. If they don't have it, they can get it in on there next delivery.

 

[CHolman]

try rpmoil.com

Jegs has or had a good price and free shipping. NAPA has it but is expensive.

thanks for the info, I am thinking of going purple all the way, just doing research right now, trying to compare, prices, etc.

I'm running RP front to back except the transfer case. I love the stuff, even running it in my 6 speed and works great.

PM redram, I'm sure he can suggest a couple good dealers.

Wyatt, you'll love the performance of Royal Purple products.



As suggested, RPMOIL. COM, I just ordered $200 worth of drive line lubes for all 3 trucks.



If you need help figuring out what you need to use let me know.



When can I come up and help "test" your twins? :-laf

I am headed to the site right now, how long will $200 worth of RP last? Garry cant find the keys Texas

#$^$%&$#& Garry cant find the keys? Yea right! Bet he is breaking in your O'ringed head, twins and comp.



I ordered 5 gallons of MaxGear 75W-90 for two NV-4500's and two rear axles. The MaxGear has been in Jo's 5speed for 50k miles, still looks good and clean and shifts 100% perfectly but I think it's time for a change. I run the RP in the transmission's 30-50k miles, rear axles get changed every Spring. I know that 75W-90 seems a little light but it yields better MPG than 150W oil and I have never seen over 220*F while towing the 5th wheel even with the RP 75W-90. I have heavier Mystic 90W-140 now because I needed to change it before a trip and didnt have time to order the RP stuff. Next change it goes back to RP



Have you considered a FastCooler (one- driver side only) and a PTO filter for the passenger side PTO cover? They add extra oil, cooling and filtering.

 

[Wyatt 1]

I have a power gen mechanic on site that loves RP he cant say enough good things about it, and he is not a dealer or anything.



I have thought about the fast cooler, especially when I saw one sitting in Garry's shop with the box open, but seeing as he might be installing it for me, I didnt think that was a good idea :-laf Idont think the " I was just gonna borrow it for awhile would work"



Looks like Puplre could go all the way!!

I looked at the site that DavidC suggested and they seem to be less expensive than rpmoil.com :{
