Changing diff fluid

How much gear oil and posi additive will I need to change the differential fluid? It is a Borg-Warner 9 bolt. Any problems with Mobil One gear oil?

The only problems with Mobil 1 are: 1) It's not AMSOIL; and 2) you have to use the posi additive.

Did I wait too long for your taste, ede?

I'm not sure of the capacity of a 9 bolt, but 2 quarts should do; 3 definately would and you'd have some around to add if needed later.
