I just picked up Royal Purple 75w90 Gear Oil and goin to put it in the Tranny one day this week...hopefully it will get rid of the 5th Gear Grind I have on the 2k mile old tranny...many people have said to go with SyncroMesh....should I return the RP and get some Penzzoil?

I'll have the underdrive pulley done within the week so by next month it'll be all above fast revving...
