Hey fellas what gear oil you guys using for the diffs. I'm kinda leaning towards aimsoil severe duty 75w90.

Any advice is really appreciated. And doing transfer case also. I think that is trans fluid. Correct me if I'm wrong. Thanks in advance.

Front diff is 80w90. Rear diff with factory gov lock is 75w90. Some aftermarket carrier manufacturers suggest different weights for various limited slip units. Some also require a friction modifier additive, some do not. If yours is OE, just do 80 up front and 75 out back and call it good.
