But it's good stuff and the best thing for a Chrysler trans and the only thing I would use in a Dodge Truck.

Redline makes an ATF+4 compatible trans oil as well. If you're interested I have a contact in Benicia, CA. LMK

i know we use t3 and dextrol on a majority of cars we do fluid exchanges on. we also use dextrol for transfer cases.

mopar actually uses a synthetic blend not a full synthetic.
