Brand name does not always mean quality and store brand does not always mean it's not as good. An example is K-Mart used to sell an oil under a store brand name, don't recall right now what that was, but it was made by Amoco and was the exact same oil as Motorcraft (Ford) or Amoco's own brand. In the testing we did in our oil analysis lab, it was one of the better oils made. By the same token, some of the "big name" oil company fluids weren't nearly as good. Amoco, Phillips Trop-Artic and a few others rated very good, but some brand names were worse than oil from the local farm stores.
As for the JD vs. IH oils, it's not necessarily the quality , but the additives being compatible with seals in the components. Just as in transmission fluids, mixing fluids does not work. You wouldn't add or mix Type F with Dexron would you?
