What is everyone using?


I am going to flush my trans possibly this weekend and was wondering what to fill it with. Redline ATF>Amsoil ATF>Mobile 1 ATF>OEM ATF?


Please feel free to comment on your favorite brand.

Any one of those three would be good choices. Redline is the best of these 3. imo.

I run mobil 1 synthetic ATF in all my transmission's, and transfercase's. I also run Mobil 1 synthetic gear oil in all my axle's. I don't have a reason for using Mobil 1 over other synthetic's except for availability. I've never had an oil related failure of these components so I'm sticking with Mobil 1.
