yeah, I don't do 5th with the trailer, the car is geared too high for that.
As far as the low-pressure area behind the vehicle, i was thinking of a boattail for the back of the trailer

The synthetic gear oil "washes" off of the differential easier and can leave parts of the differential (or manual trans) without lube; it falls off and goes back to the bottom much sooner than it should.
That's really only a problem if you tow HEAVY loads, though. My jeep is getting 75w-140 synthetic gear oil once I finally get the new front axle in (well it's getting it in both front and rear axles)
