[adv789]

Ok guys, i looked over some of the previous threads about power steering fluids. im still confused. i have a 5-ton m54a2 that needs steering fluid real bad. what do i use? and while im kinda on the subject, is it ok to use 15w-40 engine oil when i change oil, it has an LDS 465-1a in it.

Thanks guys, appriciate all the help.

Hey thanks westfolk, ya i said fluid because i wasnt sure if it is power steering fliud or if you can use straight motor oil, in this case 15W-40 motor oil. but thank you for the schooling. i did end up using rotella 15W-40. and it seems to be working just fine. now i just need to find the leak in it and get it stoped.

Again, thank you all for your help.
