It's a 1937 SK. I've drained the transmission fluid. I don't see any other openings that I can drain fluid. Are there any that I don't see? One followup the fluid to go in should be 140, yea or nay? Thanks any whom aids. Thanks, UPMAN

Most all of the old tractors used 80 or 90 weight gear oil. Tractors that used oil for hydraulics used a lighter oil.

Hello, there should be 2 plugs to drain the transmission and rear end, however they share the same cavity so the oil will flow to both ends, but will take several hours to equalize as the hole between the transmission and rear diff is not very big. One plug in transmission the other in rear differential housing. 90 weight gear oil is fine, but a little thicker won't hurt anything. I use a mulit viscosity oil that is 85-135. Don't forget that there is gear oil also in both final drives.
