I've been using that Mobil-1 75w-90 gear oil. My diff hasn't blown up yet, and it's available at most auto parts stores.

I don't know how you could, except by hearing a big clunk and then a nasty grinding noise coming from the back end.
I guess that was kinda my point, it's not like there were problems with the stock fluid.

The Mobil One 75W/90 has worked fine for me too. Last change (~35k miles?) it came out pretty similar to how it went in. The prior change was a little worse.

Inexpensive and readily available. LE1605 and Redline are both good, but harder to find, and the benefits are probably pretty minimal.

What differential fluid does the OG crew recommend?
