Amsoil or Mobil 1 gets my vote

 

Yes it does.

 

$10 a quart here

A hair over 5 quarts so you may want to get 6 to be safe (CYA for spillage). And I recommend getting something like this too. Makes it easy to do the transfer case. The one I have looks like a giant syringe but I can't find a picture of it.

 

It isn't too bad. The rear is the easiest because everything is exposed. The hardest part with the transfer is getting the fluid into it (hence the pump recommendation). The front is the worst because you have to take the skids off to get to it. It also takes an Allen head to get the fill plug out (IIRC).

Plus the plugs can be pretty tight.

 

Yes, rear differential

 

If it hasn't been changed at all, I would do all 3: front, rear, and transfer. You should be able to take your oil with you and have them put it in or use a local well-known shop. They will be a lot cheap.


Also, I edited my previous post. I realize I put "It is too bad" where I meant "It isn't too bad"

 

I don't know how far away you are form Denville, but TW'er David Tarantino is the store manager for EDT Discount Tire there. They do oil changes according to their website.

 

Yeah, it should only take about an hour, depending on the mechanics motivation that day.
