You can use the same trans fluid in your transfer case (Mercon 5) as your trans. I'm unsure about about the diffs but I'll find out as my front has been leaking badly from the pinion seal for some time and will need to be topped up when I replace the seal.

Edit: If you have an auto trans it's a 5r55e.

You will also need this post to determine what rear diff you have.
