If you do a search for oil on this site you will find 99% recommend 10W-30. Brand is not important. I would run a change for a few hundred miles and then change it again so get the cheapest name brand oil.
For the chassis grease I used a Moly added grease recommended for modern Ford products. Once you select a chassis grease use the same brand/type as all greases do not mix with one and another.

My recommendation is 10W 30 detergent oil. Use chassis grease for all the chassis points.
