yup... the ProGear 70-75 is the best box oil around
and
the diff? go the 80W-140 stuff These are what is in my Clubsport since I bought it, used as purchased
Do I need to add any additives to them or they are already in the oil mix ready to go

I don't know how to do a screen shot but if you go to the Penrite website it will have the information you need. The Penrite website says GL4.

What's the difference with the GL4 GL5 over the one that just says progear
Penrite ProGear is a type of API GL5 drivetrain/diff oil that Penrite sell, their brand name is ProGear for diff AND gearbox oils

this is an example for the diff

The Penrite oil for a Tremec TR6060 is branded ProGear 70W-75 which meets API GL4 specs
