Head on down to your parts place and they can fix you right up.
Some use silicone sealer and some use gaskets but with sealer it has to be real clean.

80/90 gear grease for rear rear end and if traction-lok add friction modifier or use tract-lok grease..

Suggest you do a real good inspection of the gears. At 130K, there has to be some wear and tear. Also check the old diff oil for any metalic debris.
