Default Dana/Strange S60: reccomended fluid replacement?

Just racked up about 1400 miles on my S60 and I was wondering that a good reccomended fluid might be to replace with? IIRC I'm running a Detroit Locker diff. I swear I searched but seems like all the 'fluid' related searches bring up tranny fluid *shrug*

Strange recommends first gear oil change for the S60 @ 1000 miles. That is to insure there will be no more metal material in the new oil from the break in.

Strange recommneds using non synthetic oil in the S60. I run Torco RGO(85w140)

Strange actually supplied me with gear lube when they sent me my rear last month and said 100 break in miles before changing and not to use syntitic for the true track if im correct? The locker might be diffrent im sure!BUT I WOULD CALL STRANGE TO FIND OUT BEFORE I PUT ANYTHING IN MY NEW REAR LOL Spend the 25 cents LOL
