gotta be honest, I’m afraid to change the fluid. I dont want to know!

Although I think my clutch is starting to glaze or something. seems I am holding the clutch pedal down longer and longer before she wants to move. May just be me getting older and sloppier though.

you mean the tranny fluid? I’ve done 3 changes on mine. no issues.

Thanks for the encouragement!

did u know the exact same trans when used in a ford escape does not use atf for fluid? that same g series trans has gear oil (75-90w) recommended. I think the atf just isnt enough of a lubricant when subjected to hard core driving.

Exactly Rob this is why I have the same feeling that atf is to thin of a fluid. With this can shed down from after a period of time. With the new Lsd coming out I think you can still use the same old regular 75w-90

when using a lsd, make sure the gear oil has the correct additive, the lsd clutches require a specifically approved fluis for them, or an additive thats added to the gear oil. read the label to see if its designed for lsd applications.
