FREE!!!! ????????????????- Pay it Forward (READ POST #1 FIRST!)

In keeping with the generous spirit of ghetto waggon's original thread, here is version II.

For the new people to the thread: What we are trying to accomplish here is a place to come and get an item for free (or shipping cost) and in turn you offer up something in equal value to the community. This is not a TRADE thread. If you want what is up for grabs then you claim that and put up what you have up for grabs.

Version I was getting a little cluttered and confusing. Here is what we are going to keep as "rules" for this thread.

Rule updates made by: evilmonkeyMSP


- Only one offering at a time can be available. (if you have tons of things you would like to give away regardless of taking what is available, by all means, start your own thread :) ) If more than one item is posted I (evilmonkeyMSP) will delete the post and PM the member to hold off.

- No "dibs" to search for something to put up. The first person with something to offer up in exchange gets the current item up and cannot back out once they have taken the previous item (especially if that item has already been shipped to them)

- A picture of the item would be nice but a proper forum pic will only be required if money is exchanging hands (ie: Shipping).

- If an item does not go after 1 full week it will be taken off and someone else can offer something new.

- The next item offered cannot be put up/taken until the previous offer is confirmed to be going to the person who requested it.

For example: Poster #1 puts up spark plugs and poster # 2 wants them and in turn offers up a mazda shirt in turn. Until Poster #1 aknowledges that Poster #2 is getting the spark plugs Poster #2's item cannot be taken.

- The item replacing an item that is being taken should be relatively equal in value. If you need to offer multiple items to replace the one you are taking, this can be done. No trading a turbo in exchange for a mazda pen (evil).

This is hopefully to help keep things less confusing.

We want to keep this going for as long as possible. I will try and monitor the thread as much as possible, and evilmonkeyMSP will moderate as needed.

Current Item up for grabs:

is the gear oil still up, if I have to check if I can use it with my LSD.

on the website they say I need to use this

Manual Transmission Fluid: Torco MTF is a special light viscosity, low friction oil with superior load carrying and wear protection properties. It is formulated using the highest quality petroleum base stocks and unique additive systems that focus on thermal stability, shear stability and shock load protection. MTF is treated with anti-oxidation, anti-corrosion and anti-foam to reduce fluid degradation and increase life of all drive components.

The fluid will be based on the trans not the diff. Thats why i asked if this is a gl4 or gl5 fluid

Then I am going to pass on the gear oil, until something else comes up. I am going to talk to MFactory about what I can use.
 
once we confirm you're taking the oil I'll change the title too so someone might see it lol

I would PM the guy offering the oil and get stuff set up :D
 
I won't be near my car until next Wednesday at the earliest (out-of-town, then the car goes into the body shop). I'll get them checked out and pictures up. I'm not trying to call dibs per the rules. Just wanted to know if they would be a fair offer.
 
would you recommend using this gear fluid in my 2002 protege?

Not in our tranny. I was curious too back when this oil was first listed. I did some research and although multiple people on here have been running it for 1-2 years in their G series trannies, the professionals I've spoken with say DO NOT stray from what the manufacturer recommends. So with that said, run MT-90, it's formulated for our trans. (syncros).
