Synthetic ATF, Transfer Case Fluid, Diff. Fluid
Hello, I'm new here, nice to be here. I have a 2002 GC Overland, 4.7HO, QuadraDrive. I have a few questions as it's time to change fluids purely for routine maintainence. All questions are regarding Redline Synthetic Oils for ATF, transfer case, and diffs.
1) After speaking with Redline technician on phone, apparently Redline C+ATF is the way to go for my ATF. I haven't been able to confirm this with research as there just isn't much info/discussion regarding this on the web. Has anyone done this with a QuadraDrive and could you please state if you're happy with it (or is is causing problems?)
2) Redline Technician also recommended Redline MTL for transfer case. The Jeep manual states that for "Quadra-Trac Models - Mopar Transfer Case Fluid (P/N 05016796AA) is the only recommended fluid." Does anyone have experience with switching to a synthetic like Redline in the t-case? Perhaps the Mopar fluid is in fact a synthetic? Any opinions?
3) Redline Technician also told me that I wouldn't need to add the Friction Modifier to the front and rear axles as the manual suggests because the Redline 75/140 already contains this. Yet Redline also sells friction modifier. Any opinions regarding this?
I don't do significant off-roading anymore as I plan on keeping this Jeep (I've had a '96 5.2, '98 5.9, and '00 4.7 in the past), and I just want to give it the best of the best and baby it. It gets very hot here in Sacramento in summertime, too, hence the desire for synthetic.
Any help and opinions are appreciated greatly!
