95 GMC C1500 2wd Automatic- What tranny fluid?

[JuicedCpe]

I am installing a new transmission and converter in my truck this weekend and want to know what transmission fluid you recommend. I do some towing with this truck- a 24 foot boat and a race car and trailer- neither weigh over 7000 pounds total weight. I already have a factory aux transmission cooler but am installing another aftermarket and transmission temp guage to keep from frying another transmission- by the way it is a 4L60-E. Thanks for the input. Oh almost forgot- I am looking for something easily available- something I can pick up at a parts store, Walmart, etc... nothing I have to order and wait on.

Mobil1, RoyalPurple, Castrol Syntec,

Where is the transmission/TC coming from?

 

[JuicedCpe]

I got it rebuilt from a transmission facility out of Oklahoma. The torque converter is a brand new Dacco unit coming from Atlanta.

Any upgrades?

 

[JuicedCpe]

Yeah some basic ones that are prone to failure on this transmission- it also has a corvette servo and 2200 stall to help with shifting and towing.

Mobil 1 ATF, RP ATF, or Valvoline MaxLife ATF.

Or go Castrol DexIII route and add LubeGuard for domestic DexIII applications.
