So the stock AAM differentials in OEM form from Chrysler aren't capable of a long life of intended service without special mail order oil and covers?
Another classic post!
Sure is weird how the OEMs are putting this bling on some of the newer hd pickups as of recent.........they must be looking to lower profit margins with the senseless add on....
So I'll take that as a yes. 75w-140 in both my '03 Cummins powered and '05 Hemi powered 2500HD's every 15k by the book. Both had carrier bearing failures in their differentials before 100k miles. Never had any trouble with the Dana axles in the 2nd gen Rams. The Sterling rear end in my F250 is still solid at 90k miles on it's original fluid.
