CRANKCASE CAPACITIES

TRANSMISSION & TRANSFER CASE CAPACITIES

CAUTIONDO NOT use transmission fluid that indicates a dual use; such as Mercon and Mercon V in a transmission which requires Mercon. Mercon V is a synthetic fluid and MUST NOT be used in applications that require Mercon or transmission damage may occur. Dual-usage fluids may be used in transmissions that require Mercon V fluid only.
