Self maintenance

please help out a clueless EVO buddy.

I've been reading alot about the evo maintenance lately and I need help LOCATING it and WHEN is the best time to replace it.

here's a list of the thinks I'm not sure about:
- Manual Transaxle Oil
- Transfer Oil
- Rear axle oil
- Differential/ Rear axle
- what other fluid do you changes?

Picture would be appreciated.

Someone should come up with a website that have the "How to do it yourself maintenance."

All those oils that you've mentioned can't hurt to change them on a regular basis. I recommend changing them the first 5K miles and then every 10K miles. I have changed mine twice already. I use Red Line oil. They seem to work well.
