Re: FUCHS oil...
have used in both my current and previous LJ71's diffs and motor...have been advised to use Penzoil in the gearbox and transfer case for cruisers as its slightly thicker and keeps it a bit quieter....gearbox is a bit ratty when cold but when warm its nice and smooth....had no issues with the fuchs oil. I usually do my engine oil every 2500k on the pos anyway given its used mostly offroad....and i do the diffs etc every 5000k as you normally get a bit of water in even with breathers....

I used to work at Hertz, and they put it in the rental cars that they serviced themselves, (Falcons, Territories and Explorers) the Toyotas were all sent offsite.

Re: FUCHS oil...
nothing wrong with Fuchs oils. We use it at work for everything generators and trucks.
I use it myself never had any trouble with it. even use it in my qaud and plan on use it in my racecar.
I know some large earth moving and minning virms that only use Fuchs.
so go hard with it, good oils.
