I know the newer manuals say hytran for transmission, however nothing changed in there since 1939, other than harder gears.

Another thing I can tell you, having farmed all those years, before the days of hytran in transmissions, it was rare to see a tractor at the IH dealer shop with transmission or rear end opened up. Yes, the transmission reservoir did improve hydraulic function but I never figured hytran was a great friend of bearings or gears.
