I’ve got 4 tractors with fluid. I have hills, I cut and bale road and water ditch.
I’ll take the safety of the fluid over the inconvenience of some rust over the decades.
Just had to get 2 rims welded at the holes to fix when needing new tires on it. $150, if they last another 45 years until needing the next repair, that’s probably ok...
My little utility tractor came without fluid, I took an empty gravity wagon down the driveway with it, when I got on some grass with dew it pushed me the rest of the way down the hill. It had 400 hours on it when I got it, without fluid, it lifted the rear and wanted to roll over with any bucket load. Most dangerous tractor I owned, couldn’t believe anyone used it like that. And my previous tractor was a H with narrow front.... After that ride down the hill I parked it, would not drive it until the coop could get there and put fluid in the rears. Been a good stable tractor for the 16 years since.
So yea I understand fluid can rust and cause issues to a collector, but man if you use a tractor don’t be foolish about it.
