Anyone Tried The Hydro Fluid Trick In a Dmax Allison? - Competition Diesel.Com

TRUBBS · 10-27-2013, 01:35 PM

just been browsing forums today being bored seeing if i could pick up some extra random knowledge and this popped in my head

seen where a lot of cumminG's (<---

) guys have been having good luck with adding some Hydro fluid into the ATF to make the trans hold better, now it had me wondering if anyone has tried it in a dmax Allison? i know I'm flirting on borrowed time running 500+ through a stock trans and was thinking if maybe this could help it last a little longer?
but i don't want to be the guinea pig that tries it and smokes the trans so i wanted to see if anyone else has tried it before?

It won't help. Nothing is gonna help besides a full build or a light foot

Allison Transynd -is- hydraulic fluid. Tes 295 hydraulic fluid (transynd) is used by all heavy equipment manufacturers and is oem for Allison transmission. The gm Allison's use dex 3 or dex6 as oem.

Tes295 is much better than atf but so slippery that you might be better off with dex 3 atf as it should help the stock transmission hold up to high power.
