Definitely would avoid the Motul 300 for the trans(we aren't GL-5 rated), but it should be excellent in the diff(what I'm using). Make sure you just get the standard gear lube version though as we don't need the friction modifiers found in the LS version as we don't have a clutch diff.

For the trans I would(and I am) run Amsoil MTG. Proper GL-4 rated fluid that won't eat our syncros unlike what the dealer tried to sell me for a change. I tend to have a rather negative view of Redline as I feel they focus more on hitting the buzzwords than actually delivering a product.

Read around, check bobtheoilguy.com, and get informed. I suspect you will come to similar conclusions.

You also need to order all this crush washers/gaskets(the tranny uses two of the same):

2x M/T Fill plug gasket: 17008AA050
Rear Diff Fill plug gasket: 11126JB000
Rear Diff Drain plug gasket: 1215710010
