I think my differential(s) are grinding. It sounds like the brakes when I'm slowing but they're fine. My tranny is also slipping and acting goofy. Actually, it always has but seems worse lately.

Could anyone give me some specifics for when I run to Napa this afternoon.
I'd like to just 'suck' the differential fluid out of the 'fill' hole, where can I pick up a fluid suction device. I remember someone purchasing one, possibly from synlube.com but I can't find one on their website. Also, what kind of fluid and what weight for LSD. Red-Line synthetic, Amsoil???

Anyone serviced their own tranny? What does it take? Filters, synthetic fluid brands, etc...

Thanks for your help.

Ok, how about if anyone knows where to pick up a 'suction-doohickey' to pull fluid from a differential rather than removing the housing.

Somebody on this board had one...

Thanks guys.
