Thanks for the info and your reply. I have had the tractor for 7 or 8 years. I bought it from a used equipment dealer who had repainted it. Which I knew at the time but the tractor was still in pretty good shape. The stickers are loacated on the loader upright posts on both sides. and where put on after the new paint job. so maybe the guy just didn't have the right stickers. It does have the diesel engine, vertical exhaust, independent pto and manual 8 x 2 transmission. The tractor gets very little use and I have not done anything to it other that change the oil once a year. Which brings me to the next question. I would like to change the oil in the transmission and the book I have says to use M2C53A oil in both the transmission and the rear axle. I assume this is some kind of ford number for their oil but what does it compare to ?? Say at tractor supply where I buy most of my oil. I will see if I can get several pictures and try to post them .
Thanks again you have been a big help.
Mike
