As an employee of a oil blender/supplier, let me put in my 2cents. When t comes to hydraulic transmission oils nearly every supplier has an economy yellow bucket oil. They can be bought much cheaper but it is because the fluid inside is much cheaper. The components used to make it are cheaper. They are inferior oils mostly good for starting brush pile fires. With the price of a transmission/TA rebuild these days it does not pay to go cheap on a tractor that is earning it's keep. A trailer queen, parade tractor, or lightly used restoration will be just fine using economy oil, no harm will be done since it does little work anyway. The chemist at work and I have had many long conversations on this subject.
This is just my non expert opinion. I am the demand planner, not a lab guy. Consider what you paid for it
