In Reply to: Ford 5000 rear axle oil? posted by Grubbie on Thursday, November 05, 2009:
You are correct about the fill hole and level plug locations for the rear axle. You should use a universal tractor/hydraulic fluid that the manufacturer states meets the Ford 134D specification.
I'm not 100% sure about the 5000, but I believe that it should be the same as on the 4000 where the PTO isn't driven by anything in the rear axle, it's actually driven by the transmission or a separate clutch inside the transmission, depending on the exact model.
What transmission do you have, and do you know if the pto is supposed to be live or independent? If you don't know, post the numbers stamped into the bell housing just aft of the starter and we can decipher the exact model specifications for you, and hopefully someone with knowledge of your exact setup will be able to give you some suggestions.
