Which oils/lubes for a high mileage V10?

I need to do some basic maintenance on my 'new' truck.

2000 F250 V10 Automatic 184k

Which motor oil?

Differential fluid?

Trans fluid?

Also, I read somewhere that I'm not supposed to change the transmission filter when I pull the pan? Is that correct? Or did I misread?

Differential takes 75w140 synthetic
Trans fluid takes Mercon

+1 however the front diff is going to take 75W-90.
As far as the tranny filter being replaced that might depend on what you find. Mark K on here can speak to replacing the filter with that kind of mileage. More than likely the answer will be no need to.

2wd, I've pretty much vowed to never own a 4wd as a daily driver again after the last couple I've had.
