'98 ZG 4.0 Transfer Case Fluid?
« on: December 06, 2011, 08:47:00 AM »

Hi, what fluid do you use in the transfer case of a 98 4 liter GC? (i assume its a 249 TC since its permanent 4wd?)
I see the guide above says Mopar 7176 (isn't that ATF+3?) or Dexron II? in which case should it be ATF+4 now?

Thanks.

Um Thanks, but more confused now, found many threads on there which seem to suggest Mopar transfer case fluid 245-247-249(part no: 05016796AC) is required.
And another that says fiat no longer supply it in quart bottles only 5L :banghead:

Sorry! just remember seeing the topic while browsing and thought ,that sounds confusing! :017: Thought it might make sense to a GC owner. If nothing else it seems fully synthetic might be the most useful starting place.
Have you tried Mazola :003:

The equivalent of Mopar 7176 is ATF+4. It used to be ATF+3.

I'd get it in quick before they bring out ATF+5 gold star with wings and leopard skin applicator.

Dexron II or equivalent is fine and cheap as chips.
