Yes they are both technically gear lube. I found that the MT fluid has friction modifier in it. So there's the difference.

That's for the differential and it's better than the regular 75w90. I'm an Amsoil dealer and Amsoil doesn't have anything specifically for our mt82

But you can use the 75w-90 manual trans fluid from amsoil in the MT82 right?

Yea some people have good luck with that stuff. I've never done a Trans service on mine so it still has ford fluid, but my Trans is actually whining now.

No Amsoil has fluid for the mt-82:
http://www.amsoil.com/shop/by-produc...?code=MTGQT-EA
I've been running it for approx. 20k mile no issues.
Just a bit stiff with shifting when its super cold but once it warms up its like butta!

Hey I'm sure 75w90 will work just fine but Amsoil recommends ford dual clutch fluid. Dark helmet, you have the severe gear. Severe gear is not for transmissions it's for differentials.

Ya my friend had the severe gear and asked of I wanted it. That's why I asked. But I bought the man trans fluid instead.

On amsoil's web site it says the trans fluid is "friction modified"
