Cool truck. Not sure where you can buy filters in Belgium, but lots of places here in the states on the net. Welcome to the site and good luck with your truck.

Do they have NAPA in Belgium? Or any of the other large US auto parts chains like CARQUEST, PEP BOYS, ADVANCE AUTO PARTS, etc.? If they do, I would think they should have the filters.

Stick with good brand name lubricants. For oil, go with 15W40. For the gear lube (t-case and axles), use 80W90. For the transmission, use Dexron III/IV or TranSynd (synthetic).

I almost never go with synthetic. I have read that it is better and lasts longer, but I am not sure that most of us would notice with the limited mileage/kilometers that we drive our trucks. However, some guys swear by it. With that said, I use only synthetic in my Mercedes daily driver, but that is what the manufacturer calls for.
