CLUTCH AND BRAKE PEDAL BUSHINGS
If the clutch and brake pedal mechanism squeaks,
the pivot bushings should be lubricated. Use Mopar
Multi-Purpose Lubricant, or an equivalent. Refer to
Group 5, Brakes for location of bushings.
CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER
LEVEL INSPECTION
WARNING: DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM OR WA-
TER BASE LIQUIDS TO CONTAMINATE CLUTCH
FLUID, SEAL DAMAGE AND CLUTCH FAILURE CAN
RESULT.
The clutch reservoir level should be inspected when
other underhood service is performed. (Fig. 1)
The fluid level is determined by its height in rela-
tion to the level indicator ring (Fig. 2) located inside
the reservoir. Add fluid until the height is level with
the indicator ring.
FLUID SPECIFICATION
Use Mopar, Brake And Hydraulic Clutch Fluid or
equivalent. Use only brake fluid conforming to DOT
3, Federal, Department of Transportation specifica-
tion. To avoid fluid contamination, use fluid from a
properly sealed container.CAUTION: Never use reclaimed brake fluid or fluid
from an unsealed container. In addition, do not use
fluid from a container that has been opened and al-
lowed to stand for an extended length of time.
Moisture in the air can be absorbed by the fluid,
which causes dilution with loss of effectiveness.
MANUAL TRANSMISSION
The manual transmission should be inspected for
oil leaks and proper oil level when other under vehi-
cle service is performed.
LUBRICANT SPECIFICATION
When it becomes necessary to add to or change the
lube oil in a Jeep manual transmission, use SAE
75W-90, API Quality Grade GL-5 gear lubricant.
LUBRICANT LEVEL
The fill-hole plug for all manual transmissions is
located on the right side of the case (Fig. 3). Deter-
mine the lubricant level according to the following
procedure.
(1) Remove the fill-hole plug (Fig. 3) from the
transmission. The lube oil should be level with the
bottom edge of the fill hole. The level can be slightly
below the bottom edge of the fill hole if the lube oil is
cold.

scribed in the Maintenance Schedules section of this
Group. The automatic transmission should be in-
spected for fluid leaks and proper fluid level whenother under hood service is performed. Refer to
Group 21, Transmission for proper service proce-
dures.
CAUTION: To minimize fluid contamination, verify
that dipstick is seated in the fill tube after fluid level
reading is taken.
TO INSPECT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID
LEVEL
WARNING: USE EXTREME CAUTION WHEN THE
ENGINE IS OPERATING. DO NOT PUT YOUR
HANDS NEAR THE DRIVE BELT, PULLEYS OR FAN
BLADE. DO NOT STAND IN A DIRECT LINE WITH
THE FAN BLADE.
(1) Be sure transmission fluid is at normal operat-
ing temperature. Normal operating temperature is
reached after approximately 15 miles (25km) of oper-
ation.
(2) Position the vehicle on a level surface. This is
important for an accurate fluid level check.
(3) While sitting in driver seat, apply brakes and
place gear selector in each position, then move the
selector to:
²XJ vehicles-P (Park).
²YJ vehicles-N (Neutral).
(4) Apply parking brake.
(5) Raise hood and wipe off dipstick handle to pre-
vent dirt from entering fill tube. Then remove trans-
mission fluid level indicator (dipstick) and wipe clean
with a wiping cloth.
(6) Install dipstick and verify it is seated in fill
hole or tube.
(7) Remove dipstick, with handle above tip, take
fluid level reading. If the vehicle has been driven for
at least 15 minutes before inspecting fluid level,
transmission can be considered hot and reading
should be in the OK area. If vehicle has run for less
than 15 minutes and more than 60 seconds transmis-
sion can be considered warm and reading should be
above MIN mark. Add fluid only if level is below
MIN mark on dipstick when transmission is warm
(Fig. 4).
CAUTION: Do not overfill automatic transmission,
leakage or damage can result.
AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FLUID
SPECIFICATION
