Default new truck =)

Well i found it on craigslist, looked at it last night and bought it, picking it up this weekend. Its a 95 2500 reg cab long bed with the 360 gas engine and 5 speed trans. Its only got 134k on it and runs great. Also has a 5 inch lift on 35s. Only thing i dont like is it has stacks, so thats one of the first things to go. But when i get it home im going to change all the fluids in it, but the guy doesnt have the owners manual. Ive looked but couldnt find really what i needed, so if anyone knows a site, or off the top of their heads, id like to know... engine oil type and capacity (10w-30?), manual trans fluid and capacity (i think you fill it till it comes out fill hole?), t-case fluid (atf+4?), front diff fluid and capacity (75w-90?), and rear diff fluid and capacity (75w-140?)
i appreciate all the help

If you can't find an owners manual, a haynes repair manual has everything you need to know as far as capacities, type of fluid, ect. Thats what I always use even though I have an owers manual you can find those at pretty much any parts store
