07 Ranger 4x4 with rear limited slip (yes, I put friction modifier in), 8.8, 4.10 differentials
I replaced my gear oil yesterday with 75w140 synthetic from the dealer, because they said the 75w140 supersedes it. Is this ok or am I going to destroy bearings? (But they also told me Mercon V was recommended for the transfer case, when it says right on the back not to use it in transfer cases.)
My area has winters that typically get down as low as -5 F or so, a few nights.
My repair manual calls for 80w90 for front and rear, but I've read that newer 80w90 is different than it was then.
What's with all this confusion on correct fluids????
