Also what kind should I be using for a 76 300d?

Sorry for the hijack, but I just realized that the diff fluid is at least 10 years old....

I don't think it should really matter if it is overfilled, it's pretty hard to overfill, though DieselGiant overfilled his a tiny bit, that's because his car was sitting at an angle when he filled it. Check his page out, it should be of a little help to you.
