what differential and transmission fluid?
 
i was wanting to change my diffs and transmission fluid on the 03 in my sig with the nv5600. my question is what should i use, i was wanting to use amsoil. I tow a little bit. And also how much does each diff and the tranny hold? thanks

Off the top of my head, I recall 3 quarts in the front diff... 4 in the rear.

I don't know about the tranny.

Amsoil is an excellent choice for both. Schaeffers is another for the diffs.

The regular Mopar ATF +4 is good as well for the tranny.

For the tranny use Amsoil MTF. Dump in 6 qts.

For the rear you can use 75w-90, 75w-110 or 75w-140.

Front 75w-90.
