Default Liquids for Ford T-Bird 92

Hi!

I'm Chris from Austria (Europe) and i'm a owner of a Ford Thunderbird 3.8 '92 and I have a little problem. I want to change the liquids and filters for the engine, transmission and the differential, but i don't have the original manual of my little chicken. And my local Ford dealer can only help me with european Ford vehicles....
So please help me find the correct fluids for the T-bird.
It's a 3.8 V6 with ~140 HP, built in 1992.

Thank you for your help!

Chris

1. Engine oil spec calls for 5W-30.
2. Transmission will be MERCON V as MERCON Transmission fluid use was superceded by MERCON V as of 2006.
3. Rear axle can be either 75W-90 or 80W-90. If you have a TRACTION-LOC rear axle, you will need to add 4 oz. of FRICTION MODIFIER.
4. Power Steering can either be POWER STTEING fliud or MERCON V.
5. Oil, Air, Transmisson and Fuel filters can be your preference of MFG.
