depends on what kind of driving you do with it, probably rebuild every 6-7 years if just daily-ing. I've been on mine for about 4 and a half years now and who knows how long it's been in the car before I bought it. I've changed the diff fluid about 3 years ago with amsoil's heavy duty diff fluid, it's time for a change but the diff works flawlessly still.

I ended up using a Torco RGO (racing gear oil) in my kaaz 2way, which is a 85w140 and also a torco friction modifier (type F) to eliminate the chattering. Works a treat! also when your changing the oil every 6 months or so, it ends up much cheaper than buying the kaaz stuff

any gl5 75w90 and change it every 2-3 events. rotella is fine. there is no need for super expensive oil, however for best results add a bottle of FORD friction modifier to each oil change. i ran that bitch for 2 years and it locked perfect every time. no need to waste money that you will flush anyway.
