The rear take regular oil not synthetic and if it is a LSD you need a bottle of the LSD additive. You want to drive around town to break in. Daily drive in traffic. Dont just get on the highway and cruise you want to constantly speed up and slow down.

Good time to do a T/A cover for stability and you can hold more oil. Make sure there is a magnet somewere in the pumkin so it can catch the metal shavings. 300-500 miles is a good amount to break in.

I know some people who drive about 50 miles then start hammering there car to break in the gears. I always just drove around normal trying not to stay at a set MPH for a extended period of time. In the end it doesnt matter because 10 bolts suck and I broke 4 in my v6 and 1 so far in my 02.
