Allot of folks run MTL in these trannys. Granted it a little thicker than there D4 or high temp ATF and not recommended. But in the warmer climates it's OK. In colder areas I would think twice. The Redline High Temp ATF is perfect for this application and the transfer case. No comparison to any other fluid I've used over the years. Schaffers is probably comparable but I've never run any of their products.
