Can I use 85w 140 instead of 75w140?
85w-140 transfers heat MUCH slower (because it flows slower) than 75w-140 causing more heat build-up. 75w-90 is even better and will bring diff temps down further, but it does not provide the shock loading properties that our rear ends require.

Where is the fluid filler plug on a Ford Ranger?
Like the manual transmission which is available, the rear axle does not have a dipstick to check fluid level. Instead, a filler plug is located in the side of the housing (or in the side of the cover), at a level just barely above the level to which fluid should fill the housing. To Check The Fluid Level:
