This works to the users advantage too, because instead of having to buy 2 liters LS for the differential, and 3 liters for the transmission (5 liters total), you can just buy 4 liters of the same product.
Ok, so I just want to ask to make sure.

Per manual
*API GL-3 fluid for the transmission 2.2L
*API GL-5 fluid for the differential 1.3L

BUT, youre saying that I should just use GL-3 for both rear diff and tranny since GL-5 dont give no extra benefits to the rear slip differential? Frankly, I dont understand the benefits of this. I might just stick to GL-5 unless you can convince me GL-3 works just as well as GL-5.
