fluid change
The transfer case already has synthetic ATF+4 in it.
Be careful what you use in your 6 speed. I tried some synthetic in my Dakota's manual transmission back when it was a year or so old. The synchros didn't like it at all. Went back to the MOPAR stuff, and it went back to normal.

Royal purple 75 w 90 in the d30 and d44, 1.25 qts approximately in the front. About 2.25 approximately in the rear.
Pennzoil synchromesh in the NSG 370. Roughly 2.5 qts
And Atf 4 in the t-case. Roughly 2 qts
Last change on the t-case at 30k and it looked brand new still, weird
