Which GL-4 Trans. Fluid do you use
 

I see the prices on GL-4 range from $35/gal (CRC) to $70/gal (Red Line). Yes, Redline is nice stuff, but is there something that performs well at a more reasonable price?

Thanks

After researching many threads on the forums, I settled on the often mentioned "Sta-Lube". Just got another order from Amazon (very fast standard free delivery).

(1) for my overdrive and rear end: Sta-Lube (by CRC) 140w Part#SL24238 API/GL-4 Multi-Purpose Gear Oil .... 1 Gallon for $24.81 tax and shipping free.

(2) for my tranny: Sta-Lube (by CRC) 85-90w Part#SL24239 API/GL-4 Multi-Purpose Hypoid Gear Oil .... 1 Gallon for $28.96 tax and shipping free.

NAPA sometimes stocks or will order Sta-Lube 85-140w in gallons but I don't like that viscosity.

Its worth Googling CRC and Sta-Lube. Also sold at many other web sites.
