Probably a daft question but someone has to ask it to stop others feeling daft!
What oil goes into the diff? Plenty came out but I don't know h
what to put back in?
 
Is the 75 - 90 good in LR diff ?
Seems better to use the lightest one which gives full protection, especial in the UK climate, but just wondered if anyone had experience with the 75-90.
I may drain mine soon and would like to try it.

I doubt very much there'd be much difference in protection, maybe a bit less initial drag setting off on a cold morning but I've never seen suggestions that a diff multi grade is better......just more available.
