IF, you can find a synth gl1 yea I'd go that way. Like you chances are slim you will find one. With your warm climate a doubt you will see much difference with a synth. If royal purple makes a non synth GL1. I'd probably just go for it. I run their MTL in the AX15 in our XJ, when we bought it at 50K it did not shift well from 1st to 2nd. After about 40k on royal purple it shifts very smooth. It was not an instant change it just seems to have slowly improved.

I need to use real gear oil in it. The trans has bronze in it so it needs to be GL 1 (or GL 2). The synchros on this trans are really slow. I read somewhere that synthetic oils improve synchro behavior. Is this true? Should I persue finding a synth GL-1 oil? I can barely find *any* GL-1 oils! Last time I looked the "choice" was Royal Purple non-synth from AutoZone. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
