Trans case fluid?

[WILDHOBO]

Sorry took so long to get back on this. When i bought my Gladdy last September it had 117,450 miles on it. As I begin changing fluids, it became obvious the previous owner was a get in it and drive.
Now I usually change fluids on any used vehicle I buy, but I'm pretty darn sure none of the service I am doing is anywhere near ahead of schedule, but rather way behind.

Better late than never. It’s got a better home with you then.

Is that a can from way back when, or do they still sell fluids in a can as well as a bottle?

I’m sure that’s old. I’d buy that from you, @ShadowsPapa.

That's an antique I wish I had (anyone here have any?)
Note the type - dates way back.

I do collect tins and cans, related to automotive, sewing machines, and gas engines.

Man. I need to dust that shelf! It's way up high near the ceiling so I rarely actually see up there.......

I've got a can of "automotive paint" from the 1940s in the shop - some of the label is messed up.

How many here never had the privilege of using one one these?
And how many has. I work at a Gulf gas station as a second job in 80-81 and have used and owned many, many of them.

And for the times you may run into a tin man in the forest?

That I’ve used many times. Lots of holes drilled in thick steel. And I used to have access to a pipe die.

For a minute I thought you were going to say you've come across several Tinmen..

Don’t risk your t-case. Just go to the dealer and buy the Oem stuff. It’s an easy drain and fill process with a hand pump on the quarts.

That’s what I did. I used the Mopar fluid and a cheap bottle pump from Amazon.

I'll see your oil pump can and raise you.........

(I actually have more elsewhere)

 

[NC_Overland]

I have a bunch of those too. My dad had them and some were my grandfather’s.

Me too.
