checking oil in rear differential
#1

no danger of foaming?
On another front, I have LSD, and wonder if the additive should be mixed in the oil before adding to the diff or if it's ok to just add it as you fill (?)

From the 2000 FSM page AN 3-69:
Fill differential with Mopart Hypoid Gear Lubricant, or equivalent, to bottom of the fill plug
hole.
You can just add the additive any time. It will get mixed in but Dodge recommends you do some "figure 8's" to work it into the clutch.

I don't think he was trying to insult you at all.
He was asking if thats how you do things or if thats the dakota manual's way of doing it. Everyone has their own way of doing things - their own tactics/shortcuts/whatever.
I would fill it up just below the filler hole and since you have an LSD put in some additive.

Any idea on the capacity of the diff, I haven't crawled under to see if it is an 8 or 9 inch.

5 ounces of Trac Lok additive if you have the LSD.
