What oil?

Well the amsoil site says you need GL-5 rated oil in both the manual transmission and transfer case. 80W90 GL-5 should fit the bill.

The site doesnt go back to 78 - just 1980 but I would think that the parts should be the same.

I would highly recommend a synthetic oil, preferrably mobil ( 75-140 or 75-90 ) keeps the temps down good! but it all depends on how much you wanna $pend.

If so, I don't think I'd buy anything from them. That site looks like it was designed by a 3 year old. Poor design and IMHO, horrible looking. I'll do some surfing around to see what that oil is all about, but IMHO, you can't go wrong with Amsoil. They are the first in synthetics and have been around since 1972 and are VERY proven.

Cenpeco is used a bit in the racing world. It is a high paraffin containing oil so if you live in the northern tier states or north, performance can be an issue.
AMSOIL is only costly if you buy it in the WRONG place and don't use it like it's intended. Up front cost, yes, but long term saves money.
