Yep,  But that forum is for light duty pickups and SUVs modern 
electronic engines.  Whole different deal than an old Caterpillar 
mechanical.  I'll admit the lubricity test results would not have 
anything to do with the type of engine and may be very valid.  I go with 
what works and we all know MMO is no good.  Just some used ATF they say.
This could be argued until the cows come home with no result.  Kind of a 
Ford/Chevy thing.
I always did like Black Diamond Strings.
