Question is now if I'm using the wrong oil for the Salisbury differential? I've heard that Redline 75W/90 LSD synthetic is the oil to chose, but what is up and down in this? It's important not to break the differential as I understand spare parts are almost unobtainable nowadays. Cheers /Finn

That's what I used in the BTR LSD on my Roadster. It cured the clicking I got when manouvering on full lock as it contains a friction modifier. Beware there is a similar packaged Redline product with an NS (no slip) suffix which doesn't have the modifier!
