80-90 will work (most any oil will work) but if you think about it, it's not a gear set... it's a chain and two sprockets. Lots of guys use ATF, I use chaincase lube in mine. Thicker gear oil may not penetrate into the links of the chain as well as a thinner lube. ATF is used in a LOT of chain driven transfer cases in different 4x4 trucks and will be up to the task of lubricating the chain in a chaincase. The thick 80-90 will rob some HP from you when it's really cold outside as well...
