What kind of fluid does a 5 speed transmission take in a 1994 jeep wrangler

If you're asking whether the transmission and transfer case will work without fluid the answer is NO. If you attempt to use it without the proper fluid/lubricant you will possibly ruin both.

Automatic Transmission, 32RH Initial Fill..........4.1 quarts
Automatic Transmission, 30RH Initial Fill..........4.1 quarts
Automatic Transmission, Total Fill
3 speed 32RH..........8.6 quarts
3 speed 30RH..........7 quarts
Manual Transmission, AX-5 2WD..........7.4 pints
Manual Transmission, AX-15 2WD..........6.8 pints
Manual Transmission, AX-15 4WD..........6.8 pints

Transmission generally takes a bit less than two quarts, Use 75/90 gear lube in that (in very cold climates you can add a small amount of automatic trans fluid to keep it flowing on cold starts) Transfer case takes a bit over one quart and takes dextron mercon 3. When filling either, fluid is full when on a level surface it begins to come out of the fill hole while filling. When changing either, always make sure you can open the fill plug before draining so you know you can replace what you removed.

have u ck out the ignition switch [not the key & tumblers],, or the neutral safety switch to see if u have power ,,also seen broken wire at solenoid on starter too,,hope it helped,,

Use Chrysler ATF+4 fluid or any fluid that meets ATF+4 specs

Chrysler ATF+4

The clutchless shifting doesn't help your cause any. Has the fluid been changed yet? Start with fresh fluid and go from there.

Good luck!!!

if this is a 5 speed manual transmission...all you need to do before putting your jeep into reverese is puting it into first gear and then shifting it to reverse to avoid any grinding or problems shifting into reverse...this isn't a problem just a poor jeep design by not installing an extra gear to eliminate this grinding or shifting problem

Hello grega1967, your Jeep Wrangler came from the factory with gear oil in the axles and manual transmission, but the transfer case uses transmission fluid. It is a NP231 and your axles are Dana 30 in the front and Dana 35 in the rear. They should have a 4.10 gear ratio due to you having a 2.5 liter 4 cylinder.

I hope this helps,
