Swapped the diff fluid out for Motul Gear 300 and the trans fluid out for Redline MT90. Have a whopping 20 miles on both. The MT90 seems a bit whiny, but shifting is buttery. The diff seems crunchier, for lack of a better word. I need to poke at it a bit to feel it lock up. I do have a big highway trip tomorrow, so whatever. While highway miles don't count for much, it will be a chance to listen and hear it. Get it warmed up well and all.
Notes on the job: Jacking this thing is interesting. The central jacking points is new to me, coming from VW which has little pucks that you put into the frame and are specifically designed for jacking the whole mess up one corner or one side at a time. Subaru's crush washers actually work. The diff could use a bit more clearance to fill up.
In other news, stay safe. I left my jacks in place and thought "hmm, I should remove the handle from the front one so I don't trip over it." Walk around car to grab something and :boom: now my left knee is a mess and yeah. Ooops.
