differential oil
 
Hi all,

Well I am going to change my diff oil for the first time and while I was
buying brake pads and rotors and other stuff I asked the parts dude for the
gear oil I needed for my 97 TJ Dana 30 and 35c stock differentials. He gave
me gear oil under the name "Parts Master SAE 80W-85W-90". The back label
says formulated for both regular and limited slip differentials. I bought
the limited slip additive too. Do I need to add it with this gear oil?
Lost my manual and just checking here before I start.

Thanks!
Kevin KC8GAB
97 TJ

Probably not IMO. Quite a few (maybe even most?) gear oils these days
seem to have the additive already in them.

Re: differential oil
 
Thanks,
Would it hurt if I did add the additive even if it is already in the gear
oil? Would it foam or be destructive in any way?

Thanks,
Kevin

Hi Kevin,
I don't see an compatibility problem, you've got it use it. It
doesn't seem to be a problem with Dana's limited slip disks, but I can
tell you the additive that comes in the oil will not satisfy a Ford nine
inch, usually popping the spiders out of the small one pinion carrier on
the first turn.

Re: differential oil
 
There were big problems with compatibility back in the seventies
when GM ran whale oil in their automatic transmissions, but now all
automobile lubricants are petroleum, including the so called synthetics.
Well, except for brake fluid.
