AMSOIL 75-90 gear oil OK in manual tranny

[able2ski]

I'm not one of those "rabid" AMSOILites, but I've used their stuff in the past for other applications and been pleased, but after visiting 3 other parts shops, nobody had the recommended Shell or Mobil tranny fluid.

I did spot 75-90W AMSoil on a local Carquest shelf, conforms for G1-G5 rating.........I figure what the hell, I'll try it. Any fresh fluid has to be better than whats already seen 30K use!

Anybody else use it and and what conclusion did you come to? Others had suggested "Swepco", but I'm guessing that must be a really exclusive item, not found at your local car parts store.
