I also use Redlines "heavy shock" oil (the pink stuff), in my diff, as mentioned, this stuff clings like crazy! Earlier this year I pulled the diff cover after the car sat over the winter, and there was still oil clinging to the top of the case.
And speaking of Jericos, am I the only guy who has troubles with gear oil seeping out the front? Its not the input shaft seal, i`m guessing it must be from the cluster shaft area. It doesn`t drip onto the ground, but always seems to have a drop sitting at the bottom of the scattershield.Any easy fix?

No, you aren't alone, but it might be time for a new steel bushing in the front of the case. When that gets loose, bad stuff can follow. You can order a new bushing from Jerico if the case is ok. If you know someone that can machine a bushing, you can do a custom one if the hole for the bushing is loose.
