What Oil/ATF/ rear diff fluid you recommend

[smilexelectric]

Nick do you work for amsoil?(okay just saw your sig im dumb)

I really want to just order everything at once and bust it all out in 1 day. Yes it is a 2wd and im just doing the drop pan and filter change, do you think I should do a full swap on the tranny, the tranny fluid is 103k old never changed before.

windber is actually pretty close to me about an hour.

if i were to buy everything at once it would be 140 bucks. the tranny fluid turned out to be 10 bucks cheaper than royal purple. I didnt look into motor oil but everyone was loving amsoil so I figured I was going to go that route. I had no clue as to what direction to head for the rear diff

I'm pretty sure the Joshua's truck is a 2wd since the 4.3 isn't offered in a 4wd.

The 4.3L was offered with 4wd before. Buddy in HS had an '03 4x4 RCSB with a 4.3L, and it was dead slow unsurprisingly.

88-98 wasnt offered 4.3 with 4x4 i dont believe. Same with a kid in my class he had a 2001 4.3 4x4.

Ouch, a 4.3L with 4wd. Better only be in RCSB.

Good to know.

I've only ever seen it in RCSB

Either way, Joshua should have the same diff as me... The 10 bolt 8.5" (or 8.625" )

If the fluid has never been done, you might as well spend an extra $10 on a new diff gasket
