What Brand Axle Oil?
Going to change the fluid again...

Don't really tow so am going with 75/90 front & rear.

I think that I used Mobil 1 alst time I did this. Is this a good choice, or what do most of you guys use?

I use Mobil 1 75w90 and so far it seems to be holding up great. I change every 20k and it always looks like brand new fluid. I do tow though, so im considering going up to 140 weight next time.

I went with Amsoil 75/90 Sever Gear over 10,000 miles ago and think it is darn good stuff.

I am running Schaffers 80/90 synthetic with moly. Amsoil, Redline and Royal Purple all are top products as well. Without towing, you'll be just fine on the lighter stuff.

Schaeffers
In My book the only way to go. I have used Schaffers in Diffs,Engine and fuel additive since 25,ooo miles... I also used it in my Tractor and Backhoe.
