Howdy!
I have a 2004 Sport Trac XLT 2wd with a 3.73 non-LSD rear differential. I'm getting conflicting information in my search results on what kind of fluid to use.
Has anyone used 80w-90 in their rear differential? I found that weight here: http://www.mysporttrac.com/mysporttrac/projects/TrickFlow/Installing a Trick Flow 8.htm
Or am I supposed to use synthetic 75w-140 without the friction modifier? http://www.explorerforum.com/forums/showthread.php?t=294758&highlight=differential+fluid
There isn't a tag on my differential cover, and the door sticker has an axle code of 46.
