Default Mopar Fluids or What

I'm going to change all the fluids in the drivetrain soon, should I get the Mopar stuff or is there better stuff out there?
Part #'s please.
Thanks
John

Hi! Pertaining to MOPAR fluids (MANY other very very good choices out there), my Service Manager tells me that there are a couple of choices from them. The "stock" dino based fluids and the higher-end synthetics with MOPAR labels on them. I wouldn't even think of suggesting which MOPAR or after-market fluids are best. I use a very reputable after-market synthetic fluid manufacturer and have had zero problems. That being said...I probably wouldn't have any problems with the "stock" fluids either! Whatever you use just change it a bit sooner if you're a "hard core" off-roader or at the recommended interval if you're more "conservative" with the JEEP. If you flood it with water...change it ASAP.
Many of the JEEPERS on this forum are better suited to offer advice derived from experience...mine is just my 2 cents worth... Take care... Mike

Thats a good question, I actually need to flush my tranny, and fill it with new fluid.
