which oils are best, now hopefully in the right forum

[arkers4]

Hi All

I'm about to do a lube job on my 1990 V8 110 & am planning to put the following oils in the respective places & would appreciate any comments / advice, in particular regarding the differential oil & steering box oil:

Engine: Castrol 15/40 high mileage mineral oil
Gerabox: EXP90 mineral oil
Transferbox: EP80W90 mineral oil
Differential 75W85 synthetic was recommended by local shop but I'm nervous putting synthetic oil in such an old truck (with 100k on clock) & wondered if EXP90 as per the gearbox would be better.
Steering box: I've no idea what to put in it (its a bicep rather the PAS unit!)

Any advice much appreciated

Many thanks

look like the gearbox might be ATF33G oil as yours will not be the the R380
