The color shift in your fluid is the sign of moisture absorption. Glad you changed the fluid, sound like it needed it. Most people do not even think about it until there is a problem and then most times its from age.

Which size did you purchase? I went out to their website, but I didn't find anything for 3/4 ton or 1 ton trucks newer than 1997.
