ATF and gear/diff. fluids for ford expedition/f150

[nikko_m]

ford specifies the use of "mercon V" on their a/t tranny's and SAE 75W-140 GL-5 synthetic gear lubricant for their rear and front diff's.,what brand of fluids have this specs available?im in the prov. baka kce walang available dito.thanks

Motylgear of Motul meron 80w140 GL-5, I think this would suffice. Its semi-synthetic though. What really matters is the GL-5 rating, the synthetic base is for the longer drain interval. As for ATF, check with Adrian if the ATF-1A can suffice, afaik pwede siya.

there are two types of ATF being used by Ford. For the A/T, MERCON V & for the power steering, MERCON. Does this apply to the expedition as well?

If it is equipped with LSD, try using Motul 90PA. Its a mineral based GL-5 LSD diff oil. If I'm not mistaken most if not all Fords require GL-5 rated diff and gear oils.
