Anyone have experience with "Coastal" gear oil?
Was just wondering if anyone here has had experience with "coastal" products. My local parts store only caries 75W-140 full synthetic in this brand. I prefer Mobil 1 or Redline products normally but can't find either one in this particular weight anywhere around here.

Hi Luke,
I have had experience with these products. Couple months ago I changed rear end fluid so far it seems to be holding up just fine. I use Amsoil products throughout except for the rearend only because I'm on a budget Coastal fluids and greases are good general fluids, not the best but good enough for general use Just my .02.

Coastal?! Hah!!
I am pretty dissapointed in coastal products. I changed my tranny fluid and filter about a month ago. I used a funnel in the dipstick as not to pour it all over the place, and after I had poured 5 quarts in I pulled the funnel and was amazed at what was inside. Some plastic that looked like a small coil spring was lodged in the funnel. I now that it came from in the container because I cleaned the dust out of the funnel before using it. I don't know how much made it to the pan, I almost pulled it back down, but I hoped the filter would catch it. So far she is shifting just fine, but I am on edge every time I drive it.
