Post subject:  Fluid change questions

Once the weather gets warmer, I am going to change my fluids to synthetic (auto trans, transfer case front and rear diffs). Engine is already synthetic swapped.

What are you guys running for oils? I was looking at royal purple synthetic 75w90 gl-4 max gear for my transfer case. 75w140 royal purple synthetic gear oil for front and rear diffs. And royal purple ATF (not too crazy about it, I need suggestions)

Need some help figuring this out haha. Thanks

What u drivin chief? I got a 2000. Switched from conventional to part synthetic a year ago and then full synthetic engine oil 4 months ago. I believe it to have caused some various leakage. Now im back to conventional. As far as diff's and t-case idk. If u that concerned i would drain em and make sure theres no metal pieces inside. If not just put it back in. If its low, add more. I usualy go with Mobil oils. But i'd stick w whatever she came with. Then again, what do i know im still kinda new here. :wave:

I have a 2004 xterra. I did the first 4 oil changes with synthetic blen. And last change I did full synthetic. No issues so far. And yea I'm gonna drain the diffs and tcase once it gets warmer and check them out. And buy the oils to put back in. But I want synthetics all around
