Mobil-1 Diff Oil
I bought some Mobil-1 gear lube for for part 2 this weekend's project (part 1 is new front Bilsteins). I had a choice of 75W-90 and 75W-140. Which should I have purchased?

75W-90 is what I would've gone with.

75W90 is the correct choice for this application. The heavier oil might be appropriate for a gearbox that doesn't turn so fast, like on a tractor.
