      Factory fills are:
      Trans, Mopar #4874459 (4)
      Diff,Mopar #4874469 (2) + additive Mopar #4318060AB (1)
      Radiator, Mopar orange
      Clutch/Brakes, DOT 4 fluid
      Power steering, Mopar clear- not sure on the #

      I run Amsoil fluids
      Trans,75W-90
      Diff, 75W-140 + additive
      Motul 600 for breaks,clutch

      Highly doubtful you’ll get a technical answer to why one fluid is superior to the others. I like Amsoil products and the quality is good/great (also cheaper).

      Is anyone running a different weight motor oil in the car and what is that? I believe some of you FI heat monster are in the 15/50 product. Just curious?

      I’ve heard of people running rotella 15-40. That’s the same oil I run in my diesel trucks. I’m not sure if that’s for all vipers or built motor set ups.

      I run Amsoil 15/50, that’s a whole other thread. LOL

      I’ve been all over and find conflicting answers and a mish mashes of recommendations for different applications. This is my question:
      For an all original 1996 GTS with only 17,000 miles
      What transmission fluid is best?
      What clutch and break fluid?
      Rear end fluid?
      Radiator fluid if different than factory fill?
      I know there are some seriously knowledgeable viper gurus out there. Please help!
