8 speed trans. fluid change

[davidihc]

My manual doesn't say a thing about trans. service interval. Does anyone know what Ram or ZF recommends?

Ram says lifetime. ZF says differently. 80,000 to 120,000 km or after eight years at the latest.

i'm planning to do mine next summer at about 80,000 km. I've purchased:

MaxLife Multi-Vehicle Automatic Transmission Fluid - Valvoline™ Global - Valvoline™ Global

Try Valvoline MaxLife Full Synthetic Multi-Vehicle Automatic Transmission Fluid, designed to maximize performance and suitable for most light duty vehicles and CVT applications.

www.valvoline.com

Says good for ZF Lifeguard 8 transmissions and a hell of a lot less costly then ZF oil...

Just go to ZF website if i recall 60,000 miles, i do mine at 45000 and use ZF fluid

Will these trucks last eight years???????

Of course they will. Are you asking because Ram says "lifetime trans. fluid"?
