Dang chris has a point I had forgotton about from my early tranny days. Back when Lucas additive and synthetics first became popular people were putting it in their trannys and limited slip rear ends and having problems. Synchro rings and the clutches in some limited slip rear ends (I'm thinking old GM types with clutches) were slipping worse and gears grinding worse during shifting. The friction is needed for the synchro rings and the clutches. ATF is a good option because it isn't a lubricant per se it is more like a hydraulic fluid meant for that application.
