    80-90 weight. The guy that did my ring and pinion swap told me to break it in on the cheapest 80-90 I can find, do the break in thing and change it, then after 500-1000 miles switch to synthetic and forget about it.

    different specs for transmission and differential - use gl4 for the transmission and gl5 for the rear.
