When I got the 880, the rubber around the gear shift lever was in 2 pieces, so I got a new one and put on. This morning I drained about 11 gallons of chocolate milk out of the transmission and rear end. Gonna let it set and drain all day before refilling. Can you still get thick 80w90 gear oil?? The stuff at Farm and Fleet is red and pours like 20wt motor oil. I guess it's alright, but just seems to be too thin. I was on a tractor ride Saturday and talked to a guy I know with a super 77, he said he added a gallon of Lucas Oil Treatment to the rear end and it quieted it down a lot, I think I'll try that and see if it helps. The magnet on both drain plugs have a lot of metal shavings on both of them, it's probably never been changed since new. Chris
