Use hypoid 80 weight in the final. Wonder if it will be alright to use Mobil 75W-90 synthetic gear oil. Does anyone use it? Thanks

Castrol syntec 75 90. So far so good. Prior to the change that rear end got real warm. Now it barely gets warm. RIDE SAFE.

+1 for the Castrol syntec 75w-90. I change every other oil change. I know I don't need to, according to the manual. It comes out filthy/dirty every time.
  I used to use the Amsoil in everything, now I use it in nothing. It's just too darned expensive and I found other brands that I am content with. Synthetic in the engine and rear end, seems to be a little cooler and quieter  Shocked ??? Roll Eyes
