You can use DOT-5 in our trucks with NO PROBLEMS. But you can't change the other way.(in other words you can't use DOT-3-4 in a DOT-5 system) If/when you change your sytem over just bleed it very well,and purge the old Fliud out. There is some DOT-5 that will MIX with 3-4 and there's some that won't.
