As per title, ordered up a new suregrip for the Valiant, bit out of touch with modern oils, do you use synthetic, specialist lsd oil or regular 90 + additive?

I use Torco, with a spool in mine, I think they do an additive for a suregrip

As I understand, there are two types.
metal on metal cone type sure grip or a clutch type.
The clutch type needs the special diff oil, others do not.

Yes, clutch type, have now found that the supplier (Dr diff) recommends 85w 140 with Ford type friction modifier. Ta
