It's been years since, and I think it's time for another rear diff lube change.

The last time I used a Valvoline Synthetic gear lube, I think... 

What to use this time?

Any SAE 80W-90 differential transmission lube will do.

That is what I used in my Concours. I changed it and lubed the shaft splines every time I replaced the rear tire.
