Default tranny fluid

im taking the 02 to my buddies work some time this week to get the tranny and rear end flushed out, i want to use royal purple so i will provide the fluids, my question is what grade of rear end (stock open diff) and tranny fluid do i need and how many quarts for each of em.

For the tranny, it requires ATF for either manual or auto. For the dif, I went with 75/w90 in Royal Purple.


EDIT~
If you put 75W90 in the tranny as Cobra suggested, you ARE going to blow the tranny. DO NOT DO IT!
