For the NV5600 use Pennzoil Synchromesh fluid, Redline MTL or Amsoil MTF. Transfer use ATF+4, diffs use synthetic 75w-90.

I run Redline MTL in my NV5600, the Dodge ATF in the transfer case, and Redline 75W-140 in the differentials... The dealer suggested the heavier weight for towing in hot climate...
