Royal purple and amsoil have been failing their mcpherson(sp) and shear/shock tests horribly lately.
The only thing about synthetic fluids is that they WILL find leaks. The worst case scenario for that would be an internal leak from the tranny into the front diff, resulting in you needing a new diff. (ATF and gear oil aren't the best of friends)
