I have a 35 f-12 also. I need to change the trans and axle lube also. My book says to use SAE-160 gear lube in summer and 90 in winter. I would go with the 160!140 and 160 are available but you may have to call around to find it. I got my oil at a Car Quest auto parts store in Cicero IN. They had it in stock! The book also says to wash out the trans drain old gear oil and fill trans with kerosene and operate in low gear with no load for 1 minute. I would also do all of this on a nice HOT day and leave the tractor sitting out in the sun for a few hours to help heat up the old oil.A quick drive down the road in high gear might not hurt either before draining out the old gooy stuff. When I drained out the oil on my 10-20 the stuff was so thick it took 3 days to stop dripping out. If the rear bearings were greased a lot there will be a bunch of thick grease in with the gear oil. I guess I was lucky as far as water goes. There was not one drop of water in the gear cases and my 10-20 sat outside for 30-40 years.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
