★ Top Answer
The 2004 Ford Explorer requires 75W-140 gear oil for its front differential. The vehicle needs 3.5 pints of gear oil and 0.25 pints of friction modifier. You can buy this fluid at most automotive stores in major retail outlets like Costco, Sam's Club, or Wal-Mart, as well as from online retailers. The price for the fluid ranges from $3 to $23. If you opt to have a mechanic or technician do the service, expect to pay between $50 and $140 for labor on top of the cost of the fluid.
