I figured I needed one. Where is the cheapest place to buy one? Any recommended brands out there?

Is this your first time attempting this? If so, take pictures and let us/me know how it goes.

GO to Ford and buy ONE(1) bottle of Ford friction modifier, and you can get your gear lube from there and it's usually cheaper.
