I am going to change out the oil in the front and rear diffs, as well as the transfer case. Is there a center differential to drain too, or is that just a locking mechanism that goes in between the front and rear?
As far as oil goes, I saw one thread where someone recommended running some cheap oil for a while and then switching it again for nice synthetic stuff if the service history for the diffs isn't known. Is this a good idea or should I just put the good stuff in right from the beginning? My truck has 245k on it and I obviously want it to last much longer.
