Bill is right. Synthetics are great but $$$$ You'll need about 3 gallons to do the axles, transfer and trans. Modern standard lubes are fine for these things too.
What caught my eye is your line about freeway speeds. With a standard engine and I believe your 4:11 gears, you might do 50 ish at 2500 rpm. Don't buzz the engine past that.
