Where do you live, do you have lockers and how hard do you play with your truck?

Thanks for all the imput. I live in fagstaff.Az., so I called Land Rover in Scottsdale,Az. They liked Mobile One 75/90 the best. $16.50 at Checker. Found it on line at Auto Barn for $7.95. Can't beat that.

Good way to go, are you going to use that in your t/case. You didn't mention what year P38 you have so I wasn' sure.

My Rover is a black early 1999 p38 4.0. My first upgrade was Atlantic British heavy duty springs with bilstein shocks. And so the project begins. I'm only using this lubricant in the front and rear differentials.
