elcid Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 Hi, I just would like to clarify the fluids for the front/rear differentials: According to a link in this site: Differential oil: Open differential - APL GL-5 SAE 80W90 LSDs differential - Use only LSD gear oil APL GL-5 SAE 80W90 approved for Nissan LSDs Transfer case oil - APL GL-4 80W90 - Am I correct to say that both front/read differentials are the same fluid? I can use APL GL-5 SAE 80W90 and be safe? thanks everyone.. just gathering my notes for my next weekend project! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Towncivilian Posted January 30, 2012 Share Posted January 30, 2012 (edited) Yes, you can use 80W-90 GL-5 for both differentials. You can use synthetic 75W-90 too. Don't use anything except GL-4 only (no "GL-4 and GL-5" compatible fluid; that is referring to compatibility in differentials, not manual transmissions) for the transmission and transfer case.
