fluids/oils/gear lube

[shelby987]

Just bought a 3/4t 4x4 and it seems that the past of the truck reads like a who's who of poor upkeep.....so just to be safe I have a complete tune up scheduled for this weekend, this will include (and please feel free to add anything I may have missed).

-Oil flush/change and the addition of restore to the oil(been seeing a little bit of blow by on hard upshifts)

-gear lube change on the front and rear axles (any recommendations on specific fluids? I hear mobil 1 is the way to go, but I am a big castrol fan, do they make anything?).

-transfer case fluid and manual transmission fluid with the addition of lucas oil stabalizer

-bleed brakes and possibly replace shoes and turn drums (all four corners w/manual brakes.....can use all the help I can get )

-The coolant looks new, and I am planning on putting in a new engine in the next couple of months, so I will likely just top off the radiator, and add an overflow bottle).

-Pull plugs and replace plugs/wires as needed

-carb was recently rebuilt, so it will receive no work.

-Fuel/air/oil filter replacement (fram wherever possible!)

anything else???? I have heard and seen with older vehicles, its best to stay away from synthetics (seals suddenly become not as leak proof as they once were) so I will likely not be using any of this, any suggestions appreciated, this is my first 4x4, so I can use any advice you got!

oh, and also, can anyone give me quantities that I will need of specific fluids....how much does the transfer case, transmission, axles, engine hold.
