I should do this with everything cooled down or warm?

Personally I feel that it is easier to evacuate the fluid while it is warm. But it really doesn't matter. Make sure you use a limited slip additive if you have a LS diff!

Sorry, I didn't see this earlier... Do you have a Farm-type store? TSC, Fleet/Farm, Farm and Fleet, etc? They will have something there that is GL-4 spec'ed. There are industrial lubes that meet the GL-4 and a handful of the high end synthetics also meet the GL-4 spec.

B. its actually easier to clean it all out. There is a lower amount of gear lube clinging to the rear end pieces when it is warm.
