Lsd 90 oil v std 80/90 oil

Post by mudlva »

Ok im at the final stages of getting me buggy up and running.
Im running shy of std 80.90 gear oil and have 5ltrs of lsd 90 grade oil here.
Im not running any lsd diffs anymore so can i use the lsd oil in replacement of 80.90?
Cheers

yes, correct, the LSD friendly additive in the oil will not harm the gears in an non lsd diff.
