Use 75W-90 in the front and rear diffs (calls for 80W-90), but you won't have to worry about it getting stiff.
On the transmission, be sure it's warmed up a little before you drop the fluid, and be sure the truck is level. When you add fluid, get it to the full mark before you start the engine. Then be to shift into neutral, then add till you get to the full hot mark. Shift into gears periodically and keep checking the level.
