Default Diff grease?

So I had to pull one of my axles apart on my 1.9 build today due to one of the output shaft clips popping off while I was removing my stock driveshafts. I noticed it was pretty dry in there minus what seemed to be a light coating of oil, WD-40 like. Should I throw some grease in there? If so what kind should I use? I have a whole tub of Valvoline synthetic grease I used for the wheel bearings in my Dodge Dakota, would that work?

The grease you have on hand will work fine. I like the grease from Vanquish Products but most any grease will do.

I've just used the same grease that I use for my wheel bearings in my 1:1 rig

I use Lucas Red and Tacky. It is the same grease that I use in my tractor and 1:1 rigs. Valvoline will work just fine too.
