★ Top Answer
For the 2000 Ford Ranger rear differential, you'll need around 3 quarts of gear oil. The recommended viscosity is 75W-90 synthetic gear lube. There are various brands available, with Lucas Oil and Mobil 1 being highly regarded by consumers for their quality. Prices for gear oil can range from $7 to $15 depending on the brand and additives included. It's important to check and replace the fluid in your differential every 30,000 to 60,000 miles. If you frequently drive in rough conditions or tow heavy loads, consider checking it more frequently.
