    migs would be the authority here as he sells the stuff...
    i believe that synchromax can be for any vehicle even 4x4.
    max gear is for heavy duty 4x4 or truck use.
    depending on your vehicle, you'll find a RP product that will suit your needs.

    rp synchromax can be used on trannies that require thinner gear oils like honda (non-lsd) and getrag trannies.

    rp max gear can be used on most of the other trannies/differentials/transfer cases
