    The genuine bushes are softer and allow more wheel travel, when I was building A frame rear suspension for my old GQ I found the genuine bushes lasted better and gave better travel,I still dont trust the polyurethane bushes, if they were that good, why arent they standard?

    Dexron 3? :O in the transfer case? I would think a good gear oil 80w would be recommended.
    its just a case filled with sprockets and a chain.

    The reason for using dexron is mainly for cold climate areas where gear oil would be thicker and was found to turn the front tailshaft and, consequently, lock the auto hubs in..

    Another reason that only applies to autos is that, if the sealing integrity between the auto trans and the transfer is compromised, the mixing of the oils won't do any harm..
