I am getting ready to rebuild my 10bolt and i was wondering what gear oil would be the best to put in ???


Oh yeah im running the stock posi unit also and the only reason im waisting my time with a 10 bolt is cause i dont have the money for a 12 bolt this year thats plans for next year .....

I'm doing the same and I just picked up some Redline Shockproof heavy weight oil (comprable to a 75W250). It's suposed to lower rear temps alot and it provides a better cusion between the gears. Also says it has super low fluid friction, super high load carrying capacity, and resist throw off. Hopefully it will do it's job for me.
