What is the BEST Fluid to use in your Transfer Case?
If you’ve ever pulled your boat up a slippery ramp, run your truck through heavy snow or ice, or trucked right through deep mud on your rural property; then you have your truck’s transfer case to thank for getting you through the rough stuff. Yes, that hunk of metal under the cab of your HD truck houses a mechanism that seamlessly transitions power from the transmission to all 4 wheels of the truck (more on that later) so that you can maintain traction in a variety of challenging situations. Of course, proper maintenance of your HD truck goes beyond just changing out the oil.
The 4 - wheel drive system on these trucks is put under a considerable amount of stress and in order to properly maintain your 4 - wheel drive system, you’ll need to also keep up on changing out your fluid at regular intervals. At Merchant Automotive, we get a TON of questions on what the best fluid solution is for GM trucks. Trust us, we’ve heard it all. We’ve caught wind of customers using everything from 5W-30 oil to universal ATF. Don’t worry, we’re here to set the record straight by covering everything you need to know about this unique component on your GM HD workhorse.
