Differential Oil Capacity?
How much oil does the rear end hold? Factory manual, owners manual and dealer all have different numbers. Dealer told me 2-23 oz plus 4 oz of additive. Some of the catalogs sell you 3-23 oz bottles plus the additive. Thanks ahead of time for the help.

My 93 shop manual doesnt give a specific amount, it just says maintain fluid level flush with bottom of opening(filler plug hole)to no more than 1/4"below opening.

Even when using the Redline fluid, you should add the additive. Redline has their own bottle of additive too. I put Redline in the last time I changed mine and used their additive.

I will look at what I have. I got it from LG Motorsports and they said I would need the additive with what they sold me.
