Sorry If I'm repeating the questions that may already have been answered.

Just an excited noob who got his hands on a 80 :)

I have always liked the 80 and have recently bought myself 1993 HDJ81V - 1HD-T automatic with 207k's on the clock.

1. The old owner used Total Energies FLUIDMATIC DIII MV in the transmission - is it ok to continue using this oil as the dip stick says to use a Dex II (has A442F Trans)
2. What oil to use in the front diff and transfer case (recommended Brand?)
3. What oil to use in the rear diff (has a K295 axle i think this means LSD)

Appreciate all the help i can get

P.S: Im in Fiji Islands

For diesel specific questions consider also checking the Diesel forum.

Check in the FSM (see link above) for the HDJ80 fluid recommendations.
