Default maintenance on Moser 12 bolt?

I am curious as to when you should change the fluid in the Moser 12 bolt from the point when it's installed. I have had mine for 1.5 yr and only driven about 1500 miles but I haven't changed the fluid yet.

What fluid do you suggest that is readily available from a parts store to use?

Thanks,
Josh

I use Valvoline 90W-140. This help keep the noise level down. Plus 2 bottles of LS addative.
