Read this, and I bet you'll reconsider using it.

For another company to put someone's name on tests, they better be right, otherwise they'll be facing some serious consequences.

Read the whole report and with no big surprise Amsoil came out as the best choice but I really liked the Penzoil Synthetic number also. I guess maybe one of those two!

Great Article! Thanks! :drink:

If you have had good luck with your royal purple for six years then dont read the report. After reading it you may have a different outlook on what is the best gear lube!

-Been running Royal Purple in my Konrad drives for the last six seasons. Just pulled the top caps, zero wear on the upper gears.

Second that. Why mess with all the other brands when you know this one is right.

I am going to go with the royal purple gear lube. It is called Max-gear correct? Which weight should I run and anyone know the capacity for a TRS drive?

TRS drive and reservoir together hold 4 Qts.
