i think ARB reccomend using original oil but i cant see any reason why you cant use plain diff oil in the rear arb .
from gregorys gq diesel manual coil 88-93:
front diff-sae80w-90 gl5=5.4 lt.
rear diff-sae ls140 gl5=3.0 lt.
gearbox-sae 75w-90 gl4=3.9 lt.
trans- series 1=sae 80w-90 gl4...2.2 litres.
.series 2=dexron II...2.2 litres.
hope that helps...shane

ya. LSD oil has preservatives in it that will help stop the arir locker seals & o-rings rotting away.
