Depends on which transmission the truck has, my Dodge Truck Service Manual says that the 46RE-4 Speed and the 47RE-4 Speed require 4.5 quarts for regular maintenance and 9.5 to 10 quarts for a complete drain (torque converter). What I always do is buy enough, start with two quarts and check the dipstick as I keep adding, being careful not to overfill. Any left over you can keep or return for credit.
