At 18000 miles if towing
Synthetic 75w140 gear oil.
I own a 2006 3.7L grand Cherokee and my tune up consists of spark pug replacements (6) for me, differential fluid change, ATF fluid change (no flush), and PCV. If you have a transfer case you will need to change that as well. good luck!
Differential oil will work fine dude or even gear box oil.dude
A 2005 Jeep Grand Cherokee uses DOT 3 fluid.
If the fluid leaking into the rear tire is not brake fluid then it comes from the differential. It means you have a leaking seal. It means you are losing differential fluid. When the fluid is gone or gets low, you will lose your differential, the gears will strip, you will hear a horrible grinding sound, the rear wheels will lock up, and you will be stuck with the vehicle stopped wherever you are. Hopefully, it will not be in the middle of an Interstate highway with traffic screaming past at 80 miles an hour.
You add the fluid down the dipstick tube.
In the differential
No, use ATF only.

Remove the plug in the center of the cover. Fluid level should be even with the bottom of the hole.
You remove the differential cover to drain fluid. Reseal it with RTV, and fill with 80w90 to the bottom of the fill hole.You remove the differential cover to drain fluid. Reseal it with RTV, and fill with 80w90 to the bottom of the fill hole.
Ceck out "what type of automatic transmission fluid is needed for a 1993 Jeep Cherokee sport and in the front and rear differential" on wiki-answers
On my 2002 Grand Cherokee the transmission dipstick is on the left side of the engine (facing the engine) near the firewall. The front differential has a 3/8 socket plug. The rear differential has a rubber plug that can be popped out with a screwdriver. The center differential has a 10mm Allen plug. For each differential the fluid should be just below the plug opening.
