Steering box fluids
So, after a few brutal "death wobbles" and a complete front end rebuild(aside from panhard and steering box), it now has a new "re-man" steer box, sway bar bushings and new panhard. Spent a couple hours searching with no definite answers on power steering fluids! I've got several quarts of Amsoil ATF that i can use, or pay nearly the same from the dealer for their "...+4" fluids.
What's the verdict... Amsoil ATF(which should be fine and not affect the rubber lines, plus cold season is just around the corner and synthetic should help.
OR
Dealership spec'd steering fluids???
Thanks for the input!
Cheers!

managed to find "Mobil1 Chrysler approved +4" semi-synthetic fluid, then decided against it and reluctantly picked up fluids at the dealership. I've gotta drive this thing 2500Kms to work in the next few days and don't need the drama half way there. Hope that cures the death wobble!!!
Cheers!
