Axle Gear Lube - what viscosity?

Third owner, not sure if/when the axle/transfer/tranny fluids were changed, so I'll be changing them over the next few weeks. First up, the axles.

 

Don't have the original owners manual, so I've got the Haynes. According to the specs, it says to use API GL-5 10W40. 10W40???

 

I know that can't be right, not for the axles. 80W90 is what I was expecting.

 

Can someone just double-check my work? I know I'm right, but you can never tell what those sneaky Japanese can do.
