I'm going to switch to 80w90 too. My 231 pukes all over the place.

I think it has more to do with the angles my rig sees as opposed to highway speeds though.

I use gear oil in mine.

I also have a long piece of rubber hose that connects the vent tubes from both t-cases. :laughing:

Hasn't leaked in two+ years.

mine blows out of the 300 but not the 231 one , dont guys usually put a small baffel under the vent in the flipped 300 to solve this problem. i dont see highway speeds so i ddint bother.

Talk about leaking...I got a bad tube of silicone so between the doubler and the 300 it pisses ATF from the doubler. But hey, I am ripping out my entire floor this weekend so I will be able to pull my case right through the floor like Vette.
