Default Gearbox and diff oils 2wd

Hi all. Search function hasnt really done it for me.

Wondering which gearbox oil is best for my t5. Think ive read ATF dexron2. Am i on the right lines? Also how many litres is it?

Same for diff oil. Which is best and how many litres??. Just a standard 2wd diff.

Just going to do them before its back out on the road as I dont know if/when theyve been done.

Also is coolant on 3 door bout 7.5l for a full change?

Lastly any brake fluid you'd recommend for standard 2wd 3 door brakes (380hp) with occassional hard road use? Again how many litres!

Thanks alot guys.

ATF for gearbox, 75/90 for rear diff and brakes you want a decent quality dot 5.1

Think it's about 3ltr for gearbox and 1.5 for diff. I fill both till the oil starts coming out the fill hole
