Decoding 2006 E450 Axle Code
I have a 2006 e450 with a tioga Class C motorhome. The door tag list the axle as 83. My searches indicate a 83 is 4.30. But the tag on the differential case is 4.56 6c24 bb 2002713-3. I'm trying to determine how to match this info with the application data shown in the Owners Manual which lists several such as M70HD (M273HD). I trying to determine if it is a conventional axle or a Limited slip one, if it already has 75W-140 fluid installed. My goal is to ensure it has the 70W-140 fluid as I'll be going on a 7,000 mile trek around the USA pulling a trailer. If I need to drain and fill I want to ensure I use the correct fluids and/or additives. Thanks

Not trying to resurrect an old thread here, though I've been on FTE since the beginning. Just wondering if anyone responded ?
