In order to keep your 2014 Dodge Ram 1500 running smoothly, you'll need to make sure you use SAE 80w-90 fully synthetic gear oil for its rear differential. The oil must meet mil-l-2105c and api gl 5 standards, which means you should buy a premium oil available at certain automotive shops. Expect to pay around $30 to $68 per quart for this specialized oil. If you prefer to have a professional handle the replacement, you can anticipate an extra $40 to $143 for labor costs.

Consult your manual page 75-140 regarding the rear axle, and add 5 ounces of LSD additive for the limited slip differential. The front axle should use 75-85 oil, while the transfer case should utilize BW 44-44 oil.
