My buddy used to work for New Process Gear in Syracuse, NY. Good
company-they treated their employees well and insisted on doing most
of their ops in the US. They made my '99 TJ transfer case (NP-231?),
too.

My '98 Cherokee, with the AX15 transmission has a change interval of
36000 miles. I just went through both the service manual and the maintenance
logbook for my '03 Wrangler with the New Venture transmission and I can't
find _any_ fluid change interval mentioned.
Using schedule 'B' ("most vehicles are operated under the conditions listed
for schedule B" -- according to the book), the only thing that seems to be
required is a fluid level check at every 3000 mile interval.
Perhaps that's why Chrysler charges so much for their version of the
synchromesh fluid. You're not supposed to change it. :(
I wonder what GM recommends for their vehicles which use a version of this
transmission?
