75W90 gear oil, go synthetic, and if you have the limited slip diff(LSD) get the additive as well.

Oh, and bye-the-way, I hear lots of people on the board swear by Royal Purple fluids, I personally use Castrol synthetics, but I plan on changing brands next oil change.

Look in either the glove compartment or engine compartment for a plate/sticker. It will have you tranny type, gear ratio, and if you have LSD. OR you can light up your tires, and look at the rubber you laid...if you see 2 distinct black marks, you have LSD (Posi traction)
If it ain't broke, fix it til it is.

Or, lift the rear axle off the pavement, and turn one wheel. If the other wheel turns in the same direction, then you have an LSD. If they turn in opposite directions, then you have an open diff
