Can you use limited slip oil on a Rubicon?
Yes. I prefer to use 75W140 in the rear of my Rubicon even though I don’t tow. Edit: If the bottle of the 75W140 indicates “limited slip” you can still use it for a Rubicon which have open differentials. The rear uses a bit more than two, the front a bit less than two.
When to change differential fluid in Rubicon 4×4?

What kind of gear oil does a Rubicon JK use?
The JK’s front fluid looked new at 30k and had almost no metal on the magnet. The JL, with it’s disconnect, should put even less stress on the gear oil. It will go the full 30 or 36k, whichever the manual recommends. Same with the transfer case.
How much does it cost to change gear oil?
Changing gear oil in a repair shop is not very expensive: $75-$150 for the front or rear differential and $120-$205 for the manual transmission. It’s important to use the proper oil (fluid). For example, if generic gear oil is used in the Honda CR-V rear differential, it may cause grinding noise in turns.
