What tranny fluid?

Synchromesh here and loving it. Huge improvement in smoothness and ease of gear changes.

So it's between Synchromesh and Synchromax it seems, but now where to buy? I've looked around and the only place I found wouldn't ship to FPO addresses.

UPDATE:

Amazon.com: Royal Purple 01512 Synchromax High Performance Synthetic Manual Transmission Fluid - 1 Quart: Automotive

this a good price?

Yes, it is not uncommon to see Synchromax at about $20.00 or more, at many local NAPA, O'Reilly or Pep Boys.

So who sell it? I have looked at Jegs, napa, auto zone summit racing not finding it. Any ideas would like to change my trans oil car is at 34K.

Auto zone has it. Yellow bottle in the area where the gear oil is :beer:

Thats really what you took away from that picture considering the thread? I didnt label it, pic is from google images. Just to show some people that have never worked on their own cars from the bottom side and seen the tag.

No issue. Thats where I fill mine from. There is a small hole about 1/8" maybe smaller that the fluid drains into the case through. Just fill the area around the shifter, let it drain in, fill, let it drain, and so on until you are done. I have someone hold a funnel and I usually pour the fluid. Put a towel around the bezel, dash and immediate carpet areas just in case, better safe than sorry.
