Default Gear oil for wavetrac

okay, so im about to change the plane jane napa gear oil out of my MWC 9" after the initial break in period and i have no idea what to put in it. Everything ive read and heard says no friction modifiers or slippery additives of any kind.... but everything i read on gear oil has some new crazy thing in it that sounds like its wat wavetrac says will void my warrenty!


anyone got some recommendations?

Napa 80/90 non synthetic weight is what I normally use. Bob

^^^ the man is correct... if all else fails, just standard 80/90 GL5 rated or higher plain gear oil will work in any rearend. any clutch type diff unit(ie Ford trac-lock/ Eaton posi) will require friction modifier additive is all, most others require no additives.
