| Post subject: | Another Differential Fluid Question |
so, if i read this link correctly: http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Jeep_Liber ... _Intervals we can put 75w-140 in the front and back. Does anyone's service manual for the 2005 verify this? Anyone used Royal Purple? This is what the 2005 online manual states: Axle Differential (Front) Mopar Gear & Axle Lubricant (SAE 80W-90) or equivalent. Axle Differential (Rear) Mopar Synthetic Gear Lubricant (SAE 75W-90) or equivalent. For trailer towing, the lubricant should be replaced with Mopar Synthetic Gear & Axle Lubricant (SAE 75W-140) or equivalent. Models equipped with Trac- Lok™ require a limited-slip additive. |

The 2005 service manual doesn't call for 75W-140 in the front diff, but you will probably be fine with it there anyway, if you just want to keep things simple. |

My service manual specifies either front or rear. I use 80W-140 synthetic simply because I tow things and its never really cold here but it can be very hot. |

Yeah, I've been using RP since the first change for no other reason than it's all I could find here and the price was reasonable. |
