Woudn't hurt as the transfer case isn't gonna be picky on fluid like a tranny. Just more $.

Amsoil ATF is the perfect idea for the transfer case.

I have tried them all. No noticeable differences between the brands. I think that I have Mobile 1 ATF in it now.

The only ones that are picky are the Auto 4x4 junk transfer cases, those require it.

Royal Purple is a great fluid.. Period. I have never ran Amsoil personally but have heard nothing but good things and do believe its a superior oil. But I am a born and bred SWEPCO man. Best stuff we have come across in our
30+ years of business. If any part EVER fails due to use of their oil, they back it/guarentee it and pay IN FULL any expense due to it. Amsoil ?

If any Amsoil rep. would like to prove otherwise we are open 5 days a week.
MON-FRI 8am-4pm Pacific standard time.
(415) 459-3068
Be ready to back your claims.

Or post claims here, with your "proof" and I will offer my arguement. If you prove me wrong, or shed even some doubt on our product I am sure you will gain PLENTY of business. I have faith in Amsoil, but I am not the only one you have to convince.
