Your front differential takes standard 90 weight gear oil. How you planning on draining it? There is an article someplace on making a drain plug hole, but don't have it right at my finger tips. The transfer case depends on which on it is. Check the color of the PS fluid, it could be standard PS fluid or standard transmission fluid, I use transmission fluid in both, (NP208 and Saginaw PS pump). Big bucks to have a shop charge it, around here any where from $600 to $800 American greenbacks. You could try recharging it your self with a kit or two from a parts store and using a can that includes a stop leak fluid in with the freon. Also you need to put the same freon in that is already in it, in your case probably R12. They leak because they are old and the gaskets go bad, or there is a lose connecting bolt, etc. Old stuff goes bad :huh: "$hit happens".

Good luck,

alright, even though i could prolly have my dads work charge my A/C for free, he works for a HUGE dealership here that FORD,Nissan, Infinity, well pretty much every make is at this dealership and he's one of the top guys there and he knows the mechanics pretty good, like i just need to buy the ball joints and a guy is going to change them and do my alignment for like 20-30 bucks.its nice, its also not nice having these problems.
