What is the best and what will do a good job for transmission fluid. I have read my manual and it says IH transmission fluid but what is that? Is there something else easier to get that will work just as good?

It would all depend on what the transmission is in? Sam

Sorry, duh....you start posting so many times you just think everyone knows what kind of tractor your working on...
Farmall Super A, 1950
I use regular 80-90wt gear oil in mine.
You can go heavier if you have seals that leak a lot.
I've heard --- I think it was gene bender -- recommend up to 145 weight here. I've never run it myself, but he certainly seems to know what he's talking about.
Once you start getting that thick, I'm not sure how low you want to go temperature wise. That might be kind of thick if you're plowing snow in sub-zero extremes - but again, no first hand experience.

The 85-120 multi Wt. gear oil is very good and hits both cold weather and warm weather issues well. Jim
