Fluids

Getting ready to do fluid swap; front rear diff, transfer case, trans. For the transfer case and trans(manual) I was going to use dex/merc and for the diff 80w90 gear oil, both conventional. I'm pretty sure if I remember right when I last checked my axel code it was non LSD. Does this sound right? Also, anyone have any clue on capacities? Thanks!

The best part about diffs, transfer cases, and manual transmissions is that you fill em till theyre draining out of the fill plug.

I doubt you would have an LSD diff on this truck unless it was added, but I am not 100% on that statement.

That's what I figured. I just wanted I get an idea of how much and of what I'm going to have to get so I don't have to make two trips or have a ton left over.
