You're welcome. And welcome to the forum! if you do a search on "differential fluid" and "transfer case fluid" on this site, you'll find lots of prior threads explaining what fluids to use and how to change it yourself (if you're so inclined).

if you do flush the differential do the transfer case too.

people have used redline 75w 140, royal purple 75w140

but the one i found that meets the specifications precisly is Sta-Lube SYN-GO 75w140 fully synthetic OEM Grade. its 29.99 per quart at napa auto parts.
pricey, but it meets the specs.
