the 145 will be fine .... you need to ask for limited slip additive when you go to the dealer .... ether Mopar brand or Ford brand will work fine ..

the nubers are the weight or the viscosity of the oil ... the higher the number the thicker the oil ....

they are both viscosity #s .. one higher one is the cold viscosity # and the lower is the operating temperature viscosity ...
