Dexron III is now labeled as "automatic transmission fluid". I buy the 1 gallon jugs at Walmart for $11 or so. Some parts stores carry it in a 5 gallon bucket too, but the price seems more expensive than Wally world.

If I'd spent good money to have a transmission rebuilt I'd sure as heck use the builder's recommended ATF.
R. The only correct answer so far, esp if a warranty is in effect

For warranty purposes I doubt if the local "transmission guru" will be able to tell what fluid was used without lab analysis.

Let's suppose there's a failure/problem, and the tranny guru asks what fluid you have in here?, and the OP responds "well the mopar gurus on Moparts said I could use _____, and said tranny guru replies, "well I told you to use _____ so any warranty/guarantee is void, go ask you Moparts gurus for help"
