The trans requires GL4 only. Don't get replacement oils that say GL4, GL5, etc. It has to be specifically GL4. Don't let a parts store counter guy tell you any differently. Napa sells GL4 dino oil in 2 qt jugs, and many speed shops will sell it in synthetic.

For the rear diff, standard 75w90 or 80w90 gear oil will be fine. You can get that at any parts store.
