check redline.com to see who else = carries it in your area.  I can't believe a dealer that carries redline could not = get you the knd you want.  75 w 90 is for the front diff on the syncro... = MT90 is for the rear tranny.  I don't know if it will matter or not, but I = wouldn't go against the MT90 advise.  Redline can be elusive, but it can be found.  I had to ship mine into the big island from oahu.  = it's worth the effort.

Volks,
 
I can't get redline MT 90 here in = Sacramento.  What the local red line purveyors carry is 75W90.  Is this OK to use in my = 85 4 speed?
 
TIA
