Jim Kuntz, I hate to dash your hopes, but it is not the fluid.
If the TA is slipping, hopefully it is just out of adjustment, but more than likely something is wrong. As I understand:
1. Slips all the time: Main transmission clutch is shot.
2. Slips only in "high" TA: TA clutch is shot.
3. Slips only in "low" TA: Ramp and rollers are shot.
The TA shares the same oil with the transmission. It's not a separate reservoir. Whatever is the right oil for the transmission is the right oil for the TA.
I just checked my 400 and 450 manuals, and they call for 15 gallons of SAE10 engine oil with a "Torque Amplifier Additive." I believe HyTran is the modern equivalent.
Pretty much any tractor with a TA should have CaseIH Hytran or an equivalent oil in the transmission.
