    So in a little pickle here. My front diff is not full after filling it with 75w90 (swore i had enough). I have 80w90 on hand in my garage. Can i just use it to finish topping off the diff it would end up being around 90% 75w90 and 10% 80w90. Thanks for the input.

    Ok sweet, ill go the 15k then and not worry about it. I didnt think it would since the weight is so close but would rather be safe since it would only be like 20$ to drain it again and fill it back up 100% with 75w90
