        I know this has been asked and answered before but kind of oils do I need for the different areas of my tractor? I want to change all the fluids in my tractor. Thank You

          engine 15/40 diesel oil , front axle 80/90 gl-4 to be safe will not harm yellow metals(gl-5 can be used if formulated not using chlorine) trans all gear 80/90 gl-4 ,   rear end  with  hydro pump aw-46 and power steering if has own sump aw-46. so basically if it is gear 80/90 anything hydro aw-46 will get you working as best as I know.

            Thanks for the info but I have a few questions with your answers. What does rear end with hydro pump mean? What is a sump on the power steering mean? What oil should I use in my backhoe and is there a separate tank for the front end loader? Thank You very much for the help.

              well you need to know where your pumps are ,manf. of tractors each have their own ideas of how to do things. your 3 point hitch most likely has a pump in the rear end of the tractor for the lift so if it does aw-46. I would think would be a good choice. Power steering systems can run off a common sump or have it’s own hydraulic source, you will have to check on what you have. I would say that as far as the backhoe goes aw-46 should be fine , but there  again does it have it’s own tank or does it run off the tractors hydro supply ? As far as the loader goes I have seen them with tanks mounted on the sides of a tractor for the oil storage but I do not think you will have that. You need to see if the loader runs off the tractors 3 point pump or a separate pump is used and where the oil comes from. you need a manual for the tractor and study it so good decisions can be made.

                There is a pump on the back but it goes to the back hoe. The pump connects right above the pto shaft. The back hoe has its own tank. The power steering has a reservoir of its own and works of the hydraulic pump on the side of the motor.

                  So I would assume that you have a common sump tractor  one hydro system for the tractor ( back hoe separate system aw-46 there ). So you could use the heavier weight oil like universal tractor fluid (front axle not included 80/90 there). In real cold weather you might notice steering not right until fluid warms up a bit. But for the gears you need oil that will protect under load and give the hyrdos good flow.
