Chassis
Component Fluid, Lubricant, or Genuine Part
Automatic Transmission (6.4L Engine with 66RFE Trans-
mission) (For Diesel Engine See Diesel Supplement) Use only ATF+4 Automatic Transmission Fluid. Failure
to use ATF+4 fluid may affect the function or perfor-
mance of your transmission. We recommend MOPAR
ATF+4 fluid.
Automatic Transmission (6.4L Engine with AS66RC
Transmission) Use only MOPAR ASRC Automatic Transmission Fluid
or equivalent. Failure to use the proper fluid may affect
the function or performance of your transmission.
Transfer Case We recommend you use MOPAR BW44-44 Transfer
Case Fluid.
Front and Rear Axle Fluid (4500/5500) We recommend you use GL-5 SAE 75W-90 Synthetic
(MS-9763).
Brake Master Cylinder We recommend you use MOPAR DOT 3 and SAE J1703.
If DOT 3 brake fluid is not available, then DOT 4 is
acceptable.

mission and fill as needed.
• Check function of all interior and exterior lights
Required Maintenance
Refer to the Maintenance Schedules on the following
pages for required maintenance. At Every Oil Change Interval As Indicated By Oil
