ATF for the transfer case (DexIII/Merc)

Gear oil for the diffs. I use 75w-90 in the front and 80w-140 in the rear.

Wouldnt have believed that. ATF is believable. What brand do you recommend? I didnt even see any tonight.

The dexIII typically isn't sold under that name anymore - but you're looking for "multi-vehicle ATF" or something like that.

It'll work. Although IMO Royal Purple isn't worth the price you pay...especially if you haven't been using it since the car was new. But that's your call.

I like redline and amsoil but like many have said you won't see a huge difference in performance for the price. Just buy what you like or can afford.
