Find some BG44K. I would suspect a high-end repair shop for European autos might carry it. It's the best.

Ok guys here it goes, I am lifting my jeep soon with a 6.5" long arm rough country kit, a Tom woods SYE and CV shaft. I will also be doing a ZJ tie rod swap along with a Durango power box and a ZJ brake booster (if I am forgetting anything I need let me know) I have stock HP D30 and D35, I plan to eventually do a rear axle swap, re-gear, locker, shafts, ect. My question is can I lightly run 35's off stock or should I stick with 33's until I attend to my axles, it is NOT my DD and I like big tires and lift, I am planning to do some light to medium wheeling mostly in mud and on the trails.

I did what you mentioned. But......
Only 1.75qts came out when I removed the plug and let it drain for 20min. I put 3qts in, let it idle for 15-20 min. Checked it and it was a hair above full.
Test drove it after that and in a 5 mile ride it "bucked" once. I'm beginning to think its not trans related. I'm going to start a thread so I don't overdo the ? Thread.
Although the trans fluid was brownish when draining now its a nice red/pink color.

I'm pretty sure he's mentioned a Chrysler joint in his area previously.

No Mopar number that I've ever heard of. But, the dealers tend to use it because it addresses issues like carbon build-up, dirty injector and internal fuel system varnish which all cause issues.

You posted just fine lol. Most likely is just the belt slipping. Check to make sure it is in good condition with NO cracks, and check the tension on it.
