Fluid question and this...
I was just having a general look around and look at things and noticed this and that my transmission fluid was low. So what should I do and what fluid is recommended(brand wise, I mean cause I know its ATF+4 lol)? Any time I had the fluid changed was at the dealership (which isn't a bad one and I know people there) or the shop I usually go to and no, not that its been that long but for the life of me I can't remember what brand transmission fluid I had used last time so I figured I'd ask what you guys use in yours. This is on my 96 Ram 1500 5.2 4x4 btw...just havent updated my profile in years lol.

On a t-case, it really doesn't matter which brand to use. Any atf works. Looks like the output seal is leaking, and it's a good time to change the bushing in there, too, as it may be slightly worn. And that leads to premature failure of the new seal if not changed. I have same thing waiting, just need to get the parts.

I use royal purple but a really good brand is Castrol (used that before Royal Purple)

See here is the thing. To put ATF+4 on the bottle yes they have to pass Chrysler's (Now Fiat) tests but they also have to pay Fiat. So in my case (Royal Purple) doesn't say ATF+4 but rather Max ATF. Now I called them and they said it will work and they have a guarantee that if it don't work in whatever you orp their fluid in (Engine, tranny, diffs, water, etc) they will replace that item. I had them email me that in writing (only find print is I have to register my miles and you have to have less then 180,000 miles) and it's covered. So that's what I use.
