Rear End Differential Fluid

I need to change my differential oil and I can't find anywhere what type of oil to use. Chilton book doesn't say and neither does the manual. 1993 F350 7.3 IDI, RWD, C5 axle code, 4.10 ratio. Anybody know?

I imagine its the standard 80w90. Now the important question is if C5 is open or limited slip because if it's limited slip you'll need to add in that additive.

Axle Code C5 is a 4.10 ratio with limited slip.

Ford Part Number for the gear oil is XL-80W90-QL

Ford Part Number for the friction modifier is C8AZ-19B546-A
