you will also bugger baulk rings quite quickly,baulk rings to work have grooves to strip oil from gear cone to allow baulk ring to brake gear to allow synchro hub to engage it, thick oil is too thick for lt77s and r380s

fair enough I won't be doing that then. Just means I've got enough ep90 to last me a couple of years
Thanks a lot for the advice guys.

Do you know if it's GL4 or GL5?
I believe GL5 is only any good for ya axle diffs
