How many quarts of automatic transmission fluid does a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4x4 take?

The exact amount of automatic transmission fluid (ATF) a 1998 Dodge Ram 2500 Diesel 4x4 takes depends on the specific transmission it has. Dodge Ram 2500s of that year could have different transmissions. There's no single answer.

To find out the correct amount, you should:

* Check your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. The manual will specify the capacity for your particular transmission.

* Check a reputable online parts website: Sites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or Napa Auto Parts allow you to select your vehicle's year, make, model, and engine to find the correct ATF capacity.

* Consult a mechanic: A qualified mechanic can tell you the exact amount and may even perform a fluid change for you.

Attempting to determine this without using these resources is risky. Using too much or too little ATF can damage your transmission.
