I used 75-140 AMSOil in the diffs. AMSOil MTF 5-30 in the tranny and AMSOil ATF in the transfer case and the whole drive train is much smoother and i picked up about 1.5 mpg. As a side note, the folks at chrysler must have given zero though about putting the manual tranny drain plug an inch above the exhaust. It makes you use a suction gun. IDIOTS!!!

Don't forget to keep an ample supply of "warranty lube". KY or Vaseline are great but in an emergency spit is even better than nothing
