Anyone know what type of oil / fluid the Mobile Suites take? Is it hydraulic oil,transmission fluid or what?
Want to purchase some so I will have extra in my tool box if needed.

Thanks

According to the manual, the hydraulics work on Automatic Transmission fluid, specifically Dexron III which is available at all auto parts stores & Walmart. I ourchased a quart of Pennzoil Dexron III for mine.

The Hydraulic system uses transmission fluid.

There was an earlier posting on this and Millerjnt asked the factory and they replied Dexron. I was told last year by Lippert that any ATF was ok to use. I would think any branded ATF would be fine.

Transmission fluid Dexron 3 is recommended it would not be good to mix Dexron with type F as when they are mixed they tend to produce foam which will lead to air in the system.
