For basic questions like this, purchase a Haynes repair manual. Look in the FAQ and also use the search feature on the forum.

That's great!

Info on where fluids goes can be found in the owners manual, Haynes manual and service manual.

Helpful hints on changing the transmission oil (would also work for diff):
