ATF+4 and make sure you get the proper sized filter for the trans. 4x4
and 4x2 use two different P/N#'s (and they're different in size as
well).
You can alternate the changing of the filters at each 30K mark (spin-on
and actual filter).

Subject: Re: DML: Changing Transmission Fluid and Filters
Me again,
I had done a search but didn't come up with anything
then went back and found I was searching on the wrong
part of the site. I found some but wasn't sure what
tranny's they were running.
I have a automatic with the 4.7L and I also need to
change out the front and rear differential and prolly
the gear box as well. Do we have a faq on what is
needed for all this? I assume my manual will have all
the types of fluids needed and amounts but any brands
better than others?
Thanks again,
Lance
