> Sorry for the confusion, your differential originally called for a SAE 90
GL-4, the MT-90 is a well suited replacement.
> A GL-4 gear oil is suitable for a zero or low offset hypoid ring and pinion
as well as straight pattern gears fitted in differentials.
> A high offset hypoid gear, where the pinion approaches the ring gear well
below it's centerline requires an extreme pressure, GL-5 type gear oil. The
note refers to late model separate differentials which typically contain a
high offset hypoid gear.
