The 2013 Dodge Ram 1500 is equipped with Mopar synthetic gear lubricant with an SAE rating of 75W-140 in its differentials. The rear differential can hold up to 5 ounces of this fluid. You can purchase bottles of this lubricant at various automotive stores, online, and at auto parts shops. Prices for a 12-ounce bottle typically range from $5 to $14. Alternatively, if you opt for a professional mechanic or automotive service technician to handle the fluid change, expect to pay an extra $60 to $242 for labor costs.
