ATF+4 and every 30k to 40k miles IIRC. Might even be 50k but I always do my trans and tcase at the same time and the tcase is always dirtier than trans.

Yes the older transfer cases used ATF+4. I think it is less than 3 quarts.

I have the NV5600 trans and it has quitened the low RPM gear growl in the lower gears. Did not eliminate the growl but reduced it a lot.
