Power Steering Fluid. Looking for the equivalent of Part #2084329

Hi Guys,
I need to top up my newly purchased '68 Charger with the modern day equivalent of the recommended part number #2084329.
I know that some people use ATF Dexron III and say that's fine, but I have also heard that it is not really the best option.
What about Part #04883077, is this still manufactured?
Thanks in advance,

I just use the regular Prestone Power Steering Fluid that I picked up at Wal-mart or any general Auto Parts store.  According to the owners manual, it says NOT to use ATF as it will damage the hoses.

Thanks resq302,
Is this the product you are speaking of:

I'm from Australia, so just making sure this is the same product as you have in the US.
Cheers,
Tim.

Yes, that is the stuff that I use.  I just have the older bottles which they have since changed to the one you linked to.
