Hi Everyone,

I need to change all the fluids in my 93 Viper. I was wondering if you guys can help me choose the fluids. I need to change the following, please provide a part number with your recommendation if possible. Thanks in advance, all your help is greatly appreciated.

Antifreeze fluid
Brake fluid
Clutch fluid
Differential fluid
Transmission fluid
Power Steering fluid

Also, should I use mopar stuff for all this or aftermarket stuff.

Thanks a lot,

I'm not an expert on fluids, but it makes sense to me that if you do not track the car, that the OEM fluids are fine. An exception would be the anti-freeze, you may want to go with a longer lifespan coolant.

DNTGTBT,
Antifreeze: 16qts.
Long life antifreeze it's good,BUT the green antifreeze [reg] and the red antifreeze [LL] DO NOT MIX! So in order to use the long life antifreeze you would have to get all of the old out.[pita!]
So- Name brand is ok. Here at the Dealership we use "Pennzoil,s antifreeze".& >
Mopar green #4267020AB[reg] or Mopar red #5066386AA[LL]

Brake fluid for normal usage:
DOT 3 Name brand ok or Mopar #4318080

Clutch fluid:
Same as brake fluid.

Differential fluid: 2qts. + additive
Mopar #4874469 75W-140 Synthetic
Mopar Limited Slip Additive #4318060AB 4oz.

Transmission fluid: 4qts.
Dexron III

Power steering fluid: 20oz.
Name brand or Mopar #4883077

The worst fluid to change is the COOLANT!! It will take some time to burp the system! Make a note as to how much you take out! Then you'll know how much you have to get back in her!

Hope this has helped you?

If you need any help don't hesitate to call me.
