Challenge
Art Hanrahan faced issues with differential loss in heavy-duty vehicles despite trying various gear oil brands, which failed to resolve the problem.
LE solution
Art Hanrahan has exclusively used LE’s 607 ALMASOL® Vari-Purpose Gear Lubricant since 1982 due to its successful performance.
Results
Art Hanrahan reports that using LE’s 607 has prevented rear-end losses for 15 years, saving the City of Fairview Park thousands of dollars in parts and labor for their fleet.
We have not lost a rear-end in the past 15 years using LE's 607. I can’t remember the last time I had to replace a U-joint or shackle pin for that matter, since I started using your (LE's) grease. I’ll never switch. I have tried every grease that’s been around and there is nothing that even comes close to yours.
