We've run it in a rear axle and automatic transmission -- both have appeared to hold up great so far.

so it sounds like a good idea then i guess when my wife takes it go all the fluids changed i'll have her stop and get it all at. the web site recomends the syncromax for the t-case does this right to you.

I still prefer Mobil 1 in the crankcase, but its what I've used for 15 years. Hard to change

For engine oil, I still like Mobile 1. For any gears, RP is very good if using the correct application. The only reason to stick with a conventional engine oil is due to cost. RP is almost always $1-$2 more then other brands, that and it's a bit harder to find.
