Installed the Yukon DuraGrip a couple years ago. Now the pinion seal is leaking and I don't understand why... cause I'm a half assed pretty darned good mechanic lol

I installed with the solid crush eliminator so the new seal should not effect my crush.

Been topping off with this **** with the modifier

I like Redlines products a lot so that might be the go to for the long term fluid.

@arthursc2 where do you buy your cases from?

@RedXray Have a link to the crush eliminator?

Honest to god, Amazon. Post-covid it may not be the cheapest route tho

I have seen them at Sam's club too, might be worth checking. Last case I bought was ~$90 for 12

Wally World was totally out of gear oil of any flavor, I guess bareshelfbiden got us again.

Amazon shippers make me laugh! I love when they pass the sign in my gate that says “please leave packages here” then proceed to drive past my house and drop the package in a barn. Total idiots!

I dropped my Sams club membership when they wouldn’t forklift a pallet of water into my trailer when I called ahead of time and ordered it. When I got there they told me “sorry no more than 3 per customer” although they were fully stocked and it was not a time of national emergency. Really pissed me off driving 45mins with a trailer for nothing.

Might check Summit racing for fluid by the case to, they were cheapest for a case or 2 of trans fluid when I bought it last.

Good idea, I just checked Sams club with a buddy's member card and they don't even sell diff fluid at the one I went to. They also quit selling Delvac truck oil and replaced it with some Prime Oil brand, not amazon Prime but just Prime Oil is what the box says. I did get a 6qt pack of Mobile1 FS 10k mile oil for $30, not the best deal but I'm about due for an oil change in the Tahoe.

Cheapest I've found so far is $7.80/qt on amazon for Valvoline conventional. Might hit Autozone on my way home just to see if there's a BOGO deal.

Was hoping they would have one listed for the 9.5 but doesn't look like it.
