Where to find BG locally?

intendedacceleration · 06-26-2006

Looking for a shop that preferably has both BG II for the tranny and redline shockproof heavy for the t-case and diff locally. Know of any? Thanks!

Not sure about BG, but I know LSE carries redline products. Contact them for details.

I tried them first, they don't have BG. I'd order it online but I need it by this weekend.

Call Archer Racing in Duluth and have them send you some down if you can't find it at a local shop, talk to Jeremy you'll have it by this weekend for sure.

Did you look on their site for a dealer locater? Maybe MAS would carry it? DB? Hitech or any of the other car shops?

You must be dead set on BG for the trans. Any reason not to use Redline in there?

No reason not to use redline I guess, just heard more positive reviews of BG. Looks like I may have to fall back on redline though if I can't pick some BG up somewhere. No biggie.

As an alternative, MAS in St. Paul carries Royal Purple. I'm currently running this in my 2G & it shifts reeeeaaal nice!

I have tried lots of different fluids and Redline is far superior compared to BF if you ask me. The shift feel is much better and all the UOA's show it protects better and holds up longer. One thing to watch out for with Royal Purple products is that they wear out extremely quickly, I wouldn't leave that stuff in a DSM tranny for any longer than 5k w/o changing it. IMO, nothing beats the Redline MTL/MT-90 mix for a DSM tranny. I use straight MTL in the Honduh's tranny which also made a nice improvement over the Honda MTF.

I consider Redline and BG to be on equal ground in Mitsu trannies. I have used both and I think they are about the same. I'd just go with Redline because its easier to get on short notice.

later,

I've yet to find a magic tranny fluid for me. I have redline in there now, and honestly still feels the same. I think I need to drain it out and put some new fluid in because it's still my first ever batch of redline I put in there. So maybe there's still some old GM Synchromesh still in there. But maybe it's time I just need to upgrade the tranny!
