synthetics
 

I am planning to convert my '05 Wrangler SE to all synthetics at the first
oil change.
Engine, trans, diffs.

What brands of synthetics are recommended for trans and diffs especially?

Anyone used Valvoline synthetic motor oils?

Thanks,
Bryan

Re: synthetics
 

I use Mobil 1 for the engine, and the dealer stuff for the gearbox. Some
folks use Redline, but I don't know if that is synthetic or not - gets good
reports though. Do you get synthetic ATF fluid for the transfer case ?

Re: synthetics
 

I have not bought anything for the transfer case yet, or any lubricants for
that matter, as the TJ just hit 1500 miles.
Mobil 1, expensive, but probably a safe bet.
How often do you change your motor oil since it is synthetic?

Are the diffs, transfer case, and transmission organic or synthetic from the
factory?

Re: synthetics
 

I aim for every 3,000 miles, but sometimes hit 3,500. I suspect that I could
go for a bit longer, between changes, but I don't think that oil isn't that
expensive really.. I have minimal consumption, and a healthy ~55-60 psi of
pressure at ~2K revs after 33K miles ( the UK oil pressure guage is almost
impossible to read - it goes 0 | 3 | 5.4 and is measured in bar. Most
annoying... )
