Re:Transmission Fluid Change?

When you had it flushed, did they put the amsoil in the tank to fill your trans up, or did you just drain it afterward and add amsoil?

Re:Transmission Fluid Change?

Max drained here with loosening the v/b bolts has been 11.5 qt w/stock pan.

10 1/4" bolts - loosen no more than 3 turns - retorque in a crossing pattern to 89-100 in/lb.

Remember to have a filter service kit. Comes with filter and gasket.

Amsoil in a few trucks 'round here

Amsoil Universal in mine. No difference in firmness of shifting and for me peace of mind.
