Re: Trans Fluid for a twin ultramatic? Power Steering fill mark and fluid?

No reason that I'm aware of to stay away from Type A, it's just that it's pretty much no longer available. Type FA is also an alternative though I use Type F and have for some time with no problems. All of my friends with Twin Ultramatics use Type F with one exception who is using TrickShift to mitigate a groaning clutch issue (with some modest success).

PS- answering your other questions - I use the same trans fluid in the power steering. My PS cap still has the hanging dipstick but the dipstick had a propensity for falling off into the pump and many have been removed so just fill (wafrm) to about a inch above the top of the filter cartridge.
