What do you mean when you say front and rear cases? Do you mean the front and rear axles? If so, the front takes 75W90 GL5 and the rear takes 75W140 synthetic. If the rear is a limited slip it needs 4 ounces of limited slip additive when changing.

If you are talking about the transfer case behind the transmission it takes ATF.

Good luck,
Doc

Would you use the same for a 97 F350, 4x4, PSD?

What about fluid for the tranny (5spd man) and xfer case?

How do you tell if it is limited slip?

Sorry for sounding stupid!

Well a general rule of thumb on tcase, and tranny fluids is if it is an Iron case it uses gear lube, if the case is alum then use ATF. very general rule but it works most of the time I have found.

arrowpilot,

Yes, the tcase and trans take ATF. Good observation, monsterbaby.

If the axle code on the door post sticker has a letter like "H" in it, then it is limited slip.

I just took it in the wrong context.
