Steve.
My 96 XJ calls for synthetic in the rear diff when pulling a trailer so it's
got to be better. Also you'll find the only to drain them is to remove the
cover then you'll also see they were sealed with silicone.

Re: '95 YJ Fluid Change
Doing it this week. He wants to use Amsoil 80W-90
http://amsoil.com/products/agl.htm in the difs and transmission. He says
it's all he uses, I know, he's probably a dealer. What's the collective
opinion on this stuff. I'm guessing it's akin to a religious
discussion. Remember I'm a newbie, go easy.

Your guess is correct.
Personally, I don't like MLM based "bizznes oportooniteeez" as most
tend to be barely legal pyramid scams.
Never used the stuff myself, figure if it was that wonderful it would
be stocked at the local auto parts stores and not sold like Amway. :)
Anyhoo, it's his vehicle, money, and choice.
