I've been using Amsoil Severe Gear 75w-90 for many years and have been happy with the results. It's in my Dodge dually also.

Re: Ring & Pinion Lube
For about three years I have been experimenting with Lucas products. I thought since Lucas is such a positive company for drag racing I would try the products.
So far I am very happy. My 12 bolt rear with 5.38 gears look like new after 150 runs. The 4.57 gears in 9" are the same. Engine bearings in a 408 SBC and 496 BBC are perfect. Two different powerglides look great after a full season. I use the following Lucas products *20w/50 "Plus" engine oil *Semi-synthetic assembly lube *Semi-synthetic ATF and to answer your question about rear gear oil *HD 80w90 I am satisfied Lucas is a good company with good products. It may require some shopping but can usually be bought at competitive pricing.

Re: Ring & Pinion Lube
Pick your favorite brand and use their synthetic gear lube. I've been using synthetic for years. No big warm up procedure, it's ready to go.

I switched to Strange US Gear 5.38 for Dragweek 2011. The tech guys at Strange said do not use any Synthetic Lube. They recomended Lucas. This was the first time on Dragweek that I didn't screw up a ring and pinion.
