Valvoline 85-140 syn blend in rear end.
I just changed my rear diff fluid with Valvoline 85-140 synthetic blend oil.
A guy from work says he uses this in his T/A that's why I decided to try it.
I havn't added any posi lube yet,just wondering if anyone else has used this oil and if you used the posi additive?

If you have a posi, you'll need the additive.
That's the wrong lube.
You'll gain about 2 miles per gallon, and probably some parts life too, if you take that candle wax out of there, and put the right stuff in it instead. Which is 80W-90 or 75W-90. These rears (unlike some other models) don't benefit from the thicker lube, and it can actually harm it, because it doesn't flow around in there like it's supposed to.
