Now that I have money for once I am going to change out everything. I want to use the best there is. I am putting valvoline premium blue in the engine but for the trans I am debating redline/dodge dealer gold. For the axle I have no clue what is good. I am going to have to do an engine flush and change out the antifreeze and maybe drill a hole in that thermostat like I keep seeing. I will make a writeup on that since there is a question on flushing a 12V. So what do you guys think I should use? I do have one preference, it can't be amsoil :evilgrin:

I changed my oil every 8k to 10k miles with Delo. I change my coolant with whatever is cheapest every 30k. I get my +4 from Walmart every 30k. For the rearend, I use 85-140 non synthetic oil.

Now there is a mouthful from a guy that covered 900K+ miles... I know Delo is a keeper...:thumbup2:

Caj, Is that a typo? If not, why do you change your coolant so often?

I just do them all at once. It isn't too expensive and I guard against my cooling system rotting out. I'd like to get a filter on my coolant system but I never think about it when I have some time off.

I have one if you want it. Think it is new, can't remember.
