Need to know which trans-Auto will take Dextron/Mercon III. NOT any ATF+
5 spd AX-15 takes a gear oil-GL3 spec,Redline or Royal Purple make a good lube ,DO NOT use a gear lube that has sulpher additivies it will eat the syncros.
Transfer case uses the same fluid as the auto transmission.

im pretty sure your trans is an AW4 considering all the question marks. just letting you know

So i have a 87 wagoneer and just got into an arguement about tranny fluid there... They almost refused to sell me Dex III. I have read on here and my bud told me to use Dex III. They wanted to sell me ATF +3 becuase that is what is in there computer. I just want a lil more verification from all you JEEPERS out there. What is the best for my OLD jeep.

THanks

Pull the carpet back and make sure the floor pan is not rusting out yet. This is a common problem.
