Just wondering where I can get some good fluids and cheap? I have decided I should change a lot of fluids in my FD. So I need some good fluids, as cheap as I can get them. Also how much do I need for each application.

I need:
Brake Fluid
AT Trans Fluid
Differential Fluid

I haven't looked under the car yet, but anyone experienced in changing any of the fluids throw me some information. I also need to know how to changethe brake fluid and differential fluid. Thanks guys.

 

ford makes good brake fluid
the at change will be a messy affair the first time you do it. be ready to get oily
you need a 23 and 24mm box wrench to get the diff bolts off to fill and drain it. get the fill plug off first.

syn is best but not cheap

 

Ford HD brake fluid is good and cheap.

However, the difference between cheap and expensive fluids for everything is probably less than the price of a full tank of gas.

Given that you have already spent 100-200X that difference on modifications, it seems an odd place to cheap out.

 

I am not saying I want cheap fluids. I am saying I want good fluids for the cheapest I can find them. I am looking for a place to find these things.

 

I hear that the Neo fluids are real good, since I have an auto will the Auto Synthetic fluid work on this page? Also would it be good to get the Neo 75W-90 HD gear oil for the differential?

Thanks, I will get some of that. How much do I need, just a liter?

 

1 liter will definitely do, but I would suggest ordering 2 so you don't have to worry about ordering again for quite a while.

 

well seeing this is kinda related, might as well add this in........... who's got the best deal on 2 cycle oil for premixing? i bought a case of royal purple the other week until it hit me how much of this stuff i was actually gonna be needing to use, gonna be needing a lil bit more haha

 

Thanks Mahjik, for all the help, you are always on the ball.

 

Sorry - I misunderstood your post. I thought you were going to put some K-Mart fluid into your FD.

The prices of the good fluids (ATE/Motul/Neo, etc.) only seem to vary by a dollar or two so your best bet is to find a singe source to save on shipping.

You should be able to find Motul 600 in a local motorcycle shop, though ATE can be hard to find. Neo you will definitely have to buy online (at Bakerprecision).
