Is there transfer case fluid for Ford PowerStroke?
Is there transfer case fluid for Ford PowerStroke?
FYI – Both Mobil 1 Syhthetic ATF and Valvoline Maxlife meet Mercon specifications (per their product sheet). I believe that Ford would have recommended SP or LV for the transfer case if it were a good fit. Simply put – they didn’t. Instead, they sell their own transfer case fluid (about the same price as SP IIRC).
How can I change the fluid in my transfer case?
Your mechanic can check the fluid condition first and change it if it’s dirty. The transfer case or unit usually has two plugs: a fill plug above and a drain plug below. The fluid level and condition can be checked through the fill plug.

I have a 04 automatic f250 Thanks guys. The owners manual says Mercon ATF, but I wouldn’t use LV or SP in the transfer case (too thin IMO) and Ford specifically says not to use Mercon V. Ford has a specific transfer case fluid (Motorcraft: XL-12), but I use the Royal Purple SynchroMax.

97 f-250 7.3l here. About to change out the transfer case fluid and was just wondering what is the capacity and what types of fluids does everyone recommend?
