old has a good point about the wider viscosity range oil. If your tranny fluid was milky it, obviously, had moisture in it; probably due to condensation. Change it, and keep a check on the condition (i.e. milky or not) through the next season...wouldn't hurt to change it again at the end of the season to make sure the moisture is gone. The Ford manual recommends changing the tranny, diff and hydraulic fluids every 600 hours. If the tractor is not used year-round (like mine), or is used in extreme conditions, this time will vary. Keep a check on the level and condition of all your fluids.

You will get a lot of discussion here, and, it does depend on your area (climate). Myself, I use a good quality 80W-90 lube in the tranny and rear end and a good quality hydraulic fluid in the lift system (Ford 134 or equivalent...all available at Tractor Supply, Auto Zone, Walmart, etc.). If you have leaking seals between the separate reservoirs, it won't make much difference...you will have to split the tractor to correct the problem. Check your levels for a while after changing the fluids to verify any leaks between the reservoirs.

 To get the feud started: NH says to use 134D... in reply to BruceR TN, 02-11-2006 15:46:13  
in all 3- transmission, hydraulics and rear axle. If you have an internal seal leaking it won't matter that way. I do this in my 861D and have no problems.
