Depends on the transfer case. If it is a NP205, it takes 80-90w. If it's the aluminum NP208, it takes ATF.

Hello there!
For your 1986 Chevy Silverado 4x4 automatic with a floor-shifted transfer case, you'll want to use Dexron III Automatic Transmission Fluid (ATF). This is the recommended fluid for manual shift transfer cases in these trucks
The key points are:
Be sure to use a transfer case fluid pump to make refilling easier. Avoid spilling fluid on hot exhaust components. If you do spill some, clean it up promptly to prevent fire hazards.
Important Note: Always refer to your owner's manual or consult a mechanic to confirm the exact fluid specifications for your specific vehicle. The type of transfer case fluid can vary depending on the model of your transfer case.
You may need some parts in the process, click this link to be directed to our website and enter the vehicle information, followed by the part name. Our system will display available parts for your vehicle.
Good luck getting your Silverado back in the game!

The key points are:
- Use Dexron III ATF, not gear oil or other fluids. Gear oil is too thick and won't properly lubricate the chain and bearings in the transfer case.
- Dexron III ATF is the same fluid used in the automatic transmission. It's designed to work well in both the transmission and transfer case.
- Avoid mixing different types of fluids. Stick with Dexron III ATF to ensure proper lubrication and prevent damage.
