I'm still looking for a rear diff gear lube clarification on my 99 runner.

Hey Guys,
I just finished changing the front diff lube, tranny fluid, engine oil, transfer case lube but I'm stumped as to where to find 90W lube.
I believe that's what the manual calls for on my 99 runner V6 4wd, but I simply can't find it in any
store.
Is there a more common weight I can use or do I just need to order it online?

thanks , kenny S

Yup, 75w90 is fine in both diffs and the t-case.

Any oil is better than none, but 75-90 will work, or 80-90 that was easier to find

I run 80-140 in my rear diff with my Lockright locker
