All of those specs should be located in your owners manual.

I would reccomend all you listed.

front diff...80w-90 Synthetic 2 bottles
rear diff....75w-140 Synthetic 2.25 bottles or 2 bottle and 1tube of modifier
trans...8qts of ATF+4 your dropping the pan only or 17qts if your doing a flush.
Transfer case...ATF+4 I believe it's 3qts you'll need.
coolant should be 2.5 gallons?? of full strength so you can 50/50 mix it.

Geez i need to remember all this chit.

Flush Coolant Flush and replace engine coolant at 60 months, regardless of mileage. Inspect Brake Hose/Line Constant Velocity Joint Inspect CV joints (if equipped) and front suspension components. Cooling System Check engine coolant level, hoses & clamps. Exhaust System Fluid - A/T Check the automatic transmission fluid level. Fluid - M/T Check the manual transmission fluid level. Positive Crankcase Ventilation Valve (E) Replace as necessary. Replace Air Filter Element (E) Engine Oil Oil Filter, Engine Spark Plug (E) Rotate Tires
(S) = Service Warranty Requirement
(E) = Emission Warranty Requirement
(B) = Both Service and Emission Warranty Requirement
