So for those of you running amsoil, what are you running in your transfer case and differentials? Looks like there are a few different options and unsure if that's because of the electronic (75th edition) and the tradesman manual setups. Not looking to turn this into a fluid war, just trying to get some insight as I don't have a truck to get under yet and read the PNs lol. Looking at flipping everything to amsoil once I come home from my 2k mile trip.

I put Redline 75w90 in both my diffs. Seems to work fine. Keeping the transfer case OEM.

Samesies.
Did the diffs at 20k, since I’ve heard most of the wear-in is in the first 15k.
Key for when changing the diff fluid: 1: use a q-tip to clean off the metallic buildup that collects on the lockers magnetic sender. I’ve read that excess can cause the lockers to stop working/have difficulty engaging.
On that same tone, I added Filter Mags to the inside of the diffs to help keep the locker signal sender free of the metallic buildup. The oem fill plugs are magnetic but not as strong or as much surface area. You can see them on lower right of housings.
