Atf?

I have searched and only found threads relating to the manual trans. fluid. Has anyone used any other atf like Royal Purple or Redline? I was considering the RP for my tranny and rear diff, what do you use?

I'm going to be installing the Enoes ATF in the near future. I'll give my impresions when this is done.
I have used and been a fan of Redline in prior AT vehicles.

Charles, thanks for your response,I thought that might be the case. I can get the Royal Purple at my local Pep Boys so I think I will try it and see how it goes. If I have any problems I will just drain it,atf is easy enough to get.

Hey Easy, was the Redline a noticeable improvement? Maybe I shouldn't just go with the easiest to get. I would be very interested in what you think of the Eneos ATF,where do you get it from? Thanks

If your gong to change it I would suggest using the Flush type of trans fluid change. It costs a bit more than just draining it but it will replace 99% of the fluid.

I'm using Amsoil. Seems to work well. Track temps don't exceed around 200 degrees F.
