[QUOTE="chevytaHOE5674, post: 1625129, member: 19817"] Wet brakes, power steering, shuttle shifts are an entirely different animal than a hydrostatic system. Buddy has a JD 450 hydrostatic dozer in his shop right now that has internal trans issues. Owner was running some cheapo tractor fluid from TSC. Fluid that came out was separated out and broke down and caused lots of heat damage and scoring. All said and done the customer will have 25k into parts and labor. Owner of the machine is kicking himself now for going cheap I'll bet. If your just talking something with wet brakes powershift clutches, etc then I personally like Shell Rotella tractor transmission. I used to use the premium Napa stuff until I noticed lots of sediment in the bottom of the buckets. [/QUOTE]
