    I know they do for gears; but for the bushing?

    30k on my bushing and swapped to 85w140. I'm in the northeast so I see 0 to 100 degree weather.

    Only issue I've had that people should keep an eye on is a clogged breather vent valve for the front diff. It can cause the front diff to leak oil out of the oil seal thinking the seal is bad. I drove myself nuts trying to figure out why it was leaking. It would randomly have a bit of diff fluid right around where the CV goes into the diff. It would stay bone dry for a few weeks then out of no where have a little coating of oil all round it. Finally I found the vent valve stuck shut. Replaced the valve and its been pretty much dry ever since.
