sinopec or mobil delvac mx engine oil are good, i have been trialing the HPR diesel engine oil in my bus for the last couple of changes, jury is still out on it so cant comment. i allways add a bottle of moreys heavy duty oil stabiliser when i do an oil and filter at about 8-10k ish or just when its getting a bit black.

as for the diffs redline or castrol diff oils are good.
