Just follow the write up and you'll be fine. It's pretty easy. I changed mine and added the lube lockers and have had no issues.

FYI. If you have a Dana 30 up front it takes 1 quart & Dana 44 rear holds 1.75 quarts

I just replace mine awhile back with ARB covers & lube lock gaskets and the front took exactly one quart and the rear one and three quarters. I replaced fluid with Redline synethic.

Do you have limited slip? Redline has the additive in it & states it on the bottle. Mobil 1 may have it too, I'm not sure.

I just put ARB covers on mine with lube lockers. Follow the writeup and you'll be fine. When putting the oil in, I found it's a lot easier if you spend $10 on the hand pump attachment that fits onto the oil bottle and lets you pump the oil through a tube into the diff (kind of like a bottle of hand soap).
