Default Rear end fluid

Anybody remeber what the weight is for the gear oil in the diff? I got my new diff cover along with all the suspension stuff but I need to order some full syn gear lube for the install.

Either 70 or 75w90. I dont think you have to order it. Local parts stores should have it. Try NAPA or Lee's auto parts (if you have those by you). When I got my Royal Purple trans fluid, autozone didnt have it...had to go to Lee's.

I was gonna try to get it all from jegs or summit racing just because I already have to order a firejacket. Someone is going to FINALLY go to the strip

I hope to get there this spring as well. And for the fluid, check you owners manual (if you have one) just to be sure. It should tell you what stock is at least.

I don't have one. I seriously thought about going up to the local ford dealer and getting one "for free" but its just too shady.

I ordered 3 quarts of redline synthetic 75w90 and a 4oz bottle of friction modifyer, hopefully that will get it done.
