The Owners Manual says API Service GL-5 (SAE 90). I think a lot of people use 75w90. Do not quote me on that though

The Eneos GL-5 75w-90 will work just fine. I've ran it in my own diff for about 30,000 miles.

On this one, you can stay away from the exotic fluids and simply use a reputable brand of 75W90 as the rear diff is a clutchless design.

Not necessarily true as it depends on the brand.
