Drain, and refill with 134D or it's equivelant, and hope you didn't cook the pump.

Say 'hello' to pump cavitation. That pump was designed for a light weight oil.. like a UTF fluid, or an aw32/46 hyd oil.. not rear end 85/140.. or 90w oil.

I hope you havn't smoke dit already.. especially in this cold weather.

Go grab some utf oil and a copy of the MANUAL for that tractor before you damage something.

How cold is it and how much water do you have in the rear end?
Cold + water = ice crystals in the pickup tube in the rear end.
I would bring it inside and thaw it out somehow.
Overnight or longer!
Then drain the rear end and refill with 134D.
Let us know if that works.

You should have 134D fluid in the hydraulics. 80 or 90 wt oil is way too thick.
