    All the things!
    I'm planning on swapping out the needle bearing with the ECGS bushing. As a result of the process, I'm sure I'll lose some diff oil. The manual calls for 75w-85, but at the auto parts store, I only found
    $28 75w-90 Synthetic Gear Lube - 1 Quart (Pack of 2)
    75w-90. Would it be I'll advised to top off with the 90? Should I hunt down 85? Or drain completely and run all 90?

    If you are just topping it off, I can't see that being an issue.

    Drain completely it’s only one quart (technically 1.1) so you are going to end up buying the same anyways.
