Is it okay to use regular power steering fluid in the KJ...like Lucas. Or does it have to be ATF+4? |

Mine is an 05 and takes ATF+4 per my FSM..........BUT ......some of the earlier models had a different fluid spec. I am not sure, so this will be an interesting thread. Where's tjkj or one of you other professional mechanics?? |

How about changing out all the steering fluid? Any of you do that? Sorry the post made me think of how I had a place tell me I should and I have not heard of that one before. |

Yeah, I did it earlier this summer. I have a friend who has a machine at his auto repair shop, (also did the brake fluid with Amsoil brake fluid) but you can do both the old fashioned (manual) way too. |
