Hey guys, so I'm going to be changing out the trans and front/rear dif fluids soon. What have you guys been using? Any fluid brand recommendations?

Nissan OEM fluid for transmission. Any brand of gear oil works for front and back diffs. For the transfer case, I believe I used Valvoline.

BG fluid for the trans fluid. The car shifts so much smoother with it.

For the transmission, you can go with OEM ATF or Valvoline MaxLife. Front and rear diff Mobile 1 75w-90.

So 75w90 works with the front and rear diffs? I looked it up at work and says it's supposed to be 80w90

I used it for over 60k miles since 80w wasn't available locally.
