Do NOT use Transmission Fluid in your Power Steering. It is designed for automatic transmissions, and a few rare manual transmissions only. (1965 Plymouth "Slant Six" manual transmission used automatic transmission fluid).
In most Chrysler products made after about 2002, ATF is what they use for power steering fluid.
