Another data point might be - Ford had some rear-end troubles with the 8N in the late 40s. Premature failure of gears in the differential. Old Ford types like Zane may well recall this. I don't have the book before me but seem to recall that they changed the heat-treat process for the final drive gears. Maybe that explains why they recommended the use of lower-viscosity oils for a couple of years in the late 40s, then backpedalled to a higher viscosity, with EP additives, in 1950 and on. The EP additives speak specifically to the differential gearing - that's where they'd do the most good. Anyone else have better data? llater, llamas
