trans fluid or gear oil?
 

i want to change my trans fluid on my 95 5.0 5 speed. i know that it comes with gear oil from factory. but i want to know which is better royal purple gear oil or royal purple manual trans fluid? Has anyone tryed either? and did u feel a difference? Thanks

I have both in my car. I am a bit confused by your post.

the trans from factory dosent have manual trans fuild in it. it comes with gear oil in the trans and the differential. i was wondering if i should change to the man trans fuild in place of the gear oil in the tranny not the rear end.

I think the t-5's came with auto trans fluid in them, not gea oil? Could be wrong?

i bet the gear oil is for the rear

and the tranny fluid for the tranny...

idk... maybe randy knows

T5 trannys use ATF Mercon fluid, not gear lube....if you fill it up with gear lube, you'll cause damage to the synchro rings, they are coated with the same friction material auto tranny clutch rings are made off, reason why ATF is specified. My 2¢.

Thanks alot

I knew it...just lacked the confidence to pul lthe trigger
