Default 1989 Dodge Ram D100

I just got a 1989 Dodge Ram D100 with a 319 2wd. What kind of differential fluid do I use and engine/ trans oil do I use to. It’s going to be my daily. Also thinking of welding the diff.

Going to be driving it on the road? Then don't weld the diff.

if you don't know what transmission you have it is best to use atf+4. if you know the truck does not have overdrive you can use the dexron/mercron stuff which is a bit cheaper. shell 15w40 is all i usually put in my engines. it seems to keep them running strong and healthy even when i don't treat them the best.
