Ok, I want to run out and buy the best fluids to change out my transmission and differential(sp?)
Questions are:
How much do I buy for each and what are the best?
Thanks- Jay

Cool, I'll go with the Mobil 1.
To get this straight,
Tranny 10 quarts?
front and rear diffs 4 quarts?

Don't forget the X-fer case, I think its another 4 quarts?
My Isuzu shop used:
14 qrts (Mobil 1 ATF) for the tranny flush and fill
3 qrts (Mobil 1 ATF) for the transfer/TOD cases
4 qrts (Mobil 1 Gear Lube Oil 75w 90 )for the diffs/ also added a lsd additive to the rear diffs.
5 qrts (Mobil 1 10w 30) engine oil

If you are not having the trans flushed, you will NOT need 10 to 14 quarts of trans fluid. IIRC... I used 4 (?) for drain and fill.
Tranny capacity with converter is only 9.1qts and you will only get 3-4 out with a regular drain and fill.

Should I change out the trans filter(30K)?

Yes, you should. It requires supporting the trans and dropping the crossmember to remove the pan.
