ORIGINAL: Silver_Dodge

PML part# 9393. 2 quart extra capacity.
Just be aware of what they say on their website:

"Increased lubricant capacity can also hinder the transmissions ability to cool the fluid. Too much increased fluid capacity will ONLY keep your transmission fluid cooler upon initial start up. Once all the fluid is up to the same operating temperature the transmissions ability to cool the excess fluid will actually over tax the pump and the coolers capacity to exchange fluid heat to the air. The pump and cooler is designed to flow "X" fluid efficiently, if you exceed the pumps capacity you will increase temps and waste fluids at maintenance intervals."
