what weight or viscosity of oil do you use in the trans and rear end (hyd.) on a ford tractor. the OEM is a part number. just wondered what it is so i can use different brand.

What Ford tractor are we talking about? From Golden Jubilee's thru *000 series at least, there were 3 separate oil reserviors behind the engine. These generally had 80 in the transmission and rear end and light weight oil (Ford designation M2C41) in the hydraulics, unless they were a SOS which also used M2C41 in the transmission. If it was below 10 degrees F Ford recommended something different here as well.

My late model Fords (Genesis) have one common reservoir for transmission, hydraulics, and final drive. They use Ford 134 Fluid.

Any of the above are now changed to 134 fluid by Ford specs. I'd still use 80-90 in the final drives. I use Archer Unifluid in all my Ford tractors except for the final drive on my 4000 SOS. It has Archer 80W90 in it.

Sorry [well not really :)] for the long answer to a short question. Give more details next time. I'll give you the short answer.

yep,, go to sams, or tractor service supply or any place that sells ..TRACTOR hydraulic fluid and DO NOT buy plain hydralic fluid..

the tractor approved fluid has the needed additives to meet ford, nh, case, ih, jd, and most all the other manufactors.. it has anti foaming additives, anti rust additives and others that plain hydraulic fluid does not have..
