You need to find out if the rear end is a posi, if so, do NOT use synthetic it it. If it is a posi use a name brand 80w90 in it with the GM posi additive,

If you don't have too many miles I would not worry about the rear end, yet. Just check it to make sure it's full!!!
Thanks for the advice. I will jack up the rear end and see if it is posi or limited slip before doing anything. I think I will make the switch to synthetic. I want to research to see the benefits of making the switch to synthetic oil in the motor.
