What type of rear end gear oil do I need ?
I am wondering what type of gear oil I will need for my rear end? I have a 12 bolt 3.73 non posi. I've heard 90w but not sure. Also how many quarts will it take? Thanks

You can also use 80W90 or 75W90 (my favorite, in synthetic).

synthetic oil is worth the little extra by far
