Well on both my Honda 300's it takes 80W gear oil. I think is pretty much the same for all differentials. But dont quote me.

You can run an 80W or an 80W90. Either one will be fine. Just be sure that it is "hypoid gear oil". It is fine to run in both the front and rear.

You can have easier steering by also adding 1 oz. of GM friction modifier the next time you change the front diff. oil.[put the 1 oz. in and then fill up with the oil]
