Front diff lube questions

I did some searches and did not find the info I was looking for. Does anyone know the correct gear lube and quantity for the front differential on a 2001?

Guzzle's site will give you all the correct info you need to know. I do remember it's 75W-90, but can't remember the quantity.

Thanks all. I went to Guzzles site earlier but did not find what I was looking for. Just blind I guess. Pulled the cover off and repainted over the weekend. Nice a shiny black now.
