first off gotta say Amsoil rocks ! as you folks know my front diff on my taco runs a lock right with 4:56 well last month jiffy boobs forgot to put oil back in after they drained it and my lock right locked up after driving 309 miles back home in 4wd !
well i paniced and out some Amsoil 75-90 in it and its been sitting pretty much since till this monday and i had no other car to drive thanks to my 85 timing chain letting go ..
well it was nasty slick with the roads at 34 * with ice on it and had to use the broken 4wheel drive ..and i heard a loud pop and my steering wheel loosened up i could steer again ...
thats right... it freed up ..so as soon as i finished doing some running around i drained the diff oil looking for broken parts or metal shavings ..i found none i refilled with more of the liquid gold stuff and works like a champ ..
also found out that too much greese in a lock out hub is a bad thing and keeps it locked in the cold even though it unlocked ! lol
but hey i got my taco back !
