Rear Diff Lube ????

What type of rear lube can I use without compromising the gears?

I also need to know if I can purchase at Advance Auto or equivalently.

Thanks,

I would stay with the stock lube diaqueen, I had some bad luck with redline shockproof, put stock fluid back in and worked like new again.

Diaqueen is the best way to go, especially if your "Factory Warranty" is still in tact.

The transmission is picky about oil. The transfer is very picky concerning what oil you put in it. The rear axle, as long as the oil is for a limited slip unit, any gear oil from Advance Auto should be fine. The things is, if you are changing lubricants, you are going to need Diaqueen for the transfer and it also works in the rear axle. So, use Diaqueen.
