Thanks, so much Frank.

I will come across my 2001 eventually.

I am hoping that the different make's case bolts will not be significantly
different. My mind is recalling either 17 or 19 ft/lbs & now that i think
about it, i believe it wrote it on the case for the torque wrench, which is
what i originally bought it for. That, and for torquing wheel bolts which
were 85-115 ft/lbs on the wheels of a 2K1 Wrangler Sport with the larger
wheel package option (i split the different and went with 100 ft/lbs). I do
not know what they are for the 2K5 Rubi (larger tires, though i believe the
wheels are the same size, but disc brakes on all 4).

i just need to find the $$ & buy a FSM for the 2K5 Rubi. That would solve
most of my problems & answer most of my questions...just have to find $125
or so.

Thanks again,

Thanks, so much Frank.

I will come across my 2001 eventually.

I am hoping that the different make's case bolts will not be significantly
different. My mind is recalling either 17 or 19 ft/lbs & now that i think
about it, i believe it wrote it on the case for the torque wrench, which is
what i originally bought it for. That, and for torquing wheel bolts which
were 85-115 ft/lbs on the wheels of a 2K1 Wrangler Sport with the larger
wheel package option (i split the different and went with 100 ft/lbs). I do
not know what they are for the 2K5 Rubi (larger tires, though i believe the
wheels are the same size, but disc brakes on all 4).

i just need to find the $$ & buy a FSM for the 2K5 Rubi. That would solve
most of my problems & answer most of my questions...just have to find $125
or so.

Thanks again,

campbell

O.K.
According to my FSM for the 05 TJ.
For the NSG370 6 speed transmission use
"Mopar manual transmission lubricant" MS-9224.
1.5L or 3.17 pts
Drain/fill plug 22 ft. Lbs.

I also have a FSM for my previous 01TJ
And for the NV3550 it says to use the
"Mopar Manual transmission Fluid"
(Exact wording from the FSM)
(notice on the 05 it says "lubricant",
on the 01 it says "fluid") :-/
drain/fill plug 14-20 ft. Lbs.

For the AX5 transmission use
75W90 API Grade GL-3
Drain/fill plug 32.5 ft. Lbs.

From the 05 FSM, wheel lug nut torque is 85-115 ft. Lbs.
Oil pan drain plug 25 ft. Lbs
Dana 44 drain/fill plugs 25 ft. Lbs
cover bolts for diffs 30 ft. Lbs.

Hope this helps
Cheers
Frank

O.K.
According to my FSM for the 05 TJ.
For the NSG370 6 speed transmission use
"Mopar manual transmission lubricant" MS-9224.
1.5L or 3.17 pts
Drain/fill plug 22 ft. Lbs.

I also have a FSM for my previous 01TJ
And for the NV3550 it says to use the
"Mopar Manual transmission Fluid"
(Exact wording from the FSM)
(notice on the 05 it says "lubricant",
on the 01 it says "fluid") :-/
drain/fill plug 14-20 ft. Lbs.

For the AX5 transmission use
75W90 API Grade GL-3
Drain/fill plug 32.5 ft. Lbs.

From the 05 FSM, wheel lug nut torque is 85-115 ft. Lbs.
Oil pan drain plug 25 ft. Lbs
Dana 44 drain/fill plugs 25 ft. Lbs
cover bolts for diffs 30 ft. Lbs.

Hope this helps
Cheers
Frank

Frank,

You are The Man. Thank so much for this most valuable ionformation.

According to my information MS-9224 is indeed Mopar/Chrysler 04874464 Manual
Transmission Lubricant...the same as used in the NV3500 & NV3550
trqnsmissions & also complies with Pennzoil Synchromesh Manual Transmission
Lubricant, which also states it meets Chrysler MS-9224/04874464. I may
give the Pennzoil a try. I have both at home.

"PENNZOIL® SYNCHROMESH FLUID is specifically formulated for synchromesh
transmissions used by Chrysler transmissions requiring Part No. 4874464
(Specification MS-9224)."

BTW...the case torque specs in ft/lbs did go up as you noted, so the
information you have provided is valuable on two fronts.

I really do appreciate all of the information you have provided as well as
everyone else too.

Thanks one and all.

Campbell Freeman
South Carolina
