Default I need a fluid fill up

I plan to spend my Saturday this weekend emptying and refilling the fluid levels in my transfer case, my differentials, and my swivels. can someone please give me a heads up on what the fluids are for each location and the proper procedure for the transfer case (i am not sure how to change the oil in it and what it needs) I am sure it is all in the rave manual but I was hoping you guys could make my life a little easier.

the frt & rear diff and transfer case all take about 2 quarts each ( for a total of 6) ...I use 75w-140 synthetic in all three. there's a good write-up in the tech section on draining and refilling the t-case.....but you dont neccessarrily have to remove the bottom cover ....you can just use the drain plug.
swivels are not all that hard either.....they are accessible from under the front of the truck,......turn the steering wheel full left to access the lh fill plug, full right to access the rh fill plug,you must turn the wheel to fully open the "hole" to allow the grease to go in, I use the one shot grease tubes (370ml) one each per side...or you can buy some "00" grease at a local lawnmower shop--same stuff. Dont worry about overdoing it there..a little extra wont harm anything.....good luck
