I have a three speed automatic transmission. When changing the differential fluid do I use gear oil or do I use transmission fluid?

Good morning.

It takes ATF.

Recommended ATF is Dexron II or Dexron III.

Do I use gear oil or transmission fluid for the transmission gearbox on the rear of the transmission?

As listed above, it takes the same fluid.

Use Dexron 2 or 3.
