Going to change mine cause the cover is leaking. What grade of oil do I use? It's the Borg Warner rear end.

buy the best that you can afford but stay away from the $.99 cheapo crap. I use Royal Purple everything in my car but chances are that you can't justify spending $9/qt. Make sure that it's either got friction modifier in it or you add a bottle of it yourself.
