    For those of you on the fence about swapping out stock fluids for Amsoil, Royal Purple etc... Here is an idea of the cost which IMO is not bad considering the added protection you get.

    European 5w40 motor oil 8 qts (always get one extra) @ 6.00= $48.00
    Oil filter=$13.75
    Univeral Transmission fluid 10Qts (10 needed for overhaul or complete flush) 4-6 for just servicing @ $7.15 each=$71.50
    Front and Rear diff fluid: Front requires 57.5 oz and Rear requires 76.0 oz = 134oz rounded up, 32oz in 1 quart so you need 4.1875 qts so 5 quarts @ $11.45 each = $57.25

    Total: 190.50 plus shipping
