If you look at the technical data on GL-4 and GL-5 it's easy to see that GL-4 is specifically designed for transmissions with their soft metals, and GL-5 is designed for differentials. Most synthetic 75W-90 is GL-5. I've only been able to find two 75W-90s that are available in GL-4; AMSOIL and Pennzoil. It's harder to find but I'd much rather have the gear oil that's designed for a manual transaxle.
