I would recommend the MTL in the NV3500 transmission. It is a GL-4 gear
lube, it doesn't contain any reactive sulphur. GL-5 gear lubes contain
reactive sulphur that can be corrosive to brass and bronze, they are used
in both petroleum as well as synthetic lubes. The amounts vary with
manufacturers, the Red Line GL-5 lubes don't use the concentration others
do and are not corrosive and don't cause pitting of the surface. The GL-4
gear lubes contain a non-reactive sulphur EP additive.
In the limited slip differential I would recommend the 75W90.
Thank you for your interest in Red Line Oil.
