I'm in need of a quality hydro transmission oil. The tractor gets about 50hrs. of use per year , so it sets a good bit. Any recommendations for a quality oil?

Antlers, since your tractor IIRC is still under warranty, I'd stick with the LS brand. They can be sticklers about some of that stuff. Plus, what I purchased at my dealer was less in price than what I could get for the JD or even tractor supply equivalent.

Your mileage may vary.

When I change mine out I'm probably going to a synthetic. Possibly Amsoil.

I've heard Amsoil has good stuff. I don't have any personal experience with it though.

It don't have to be LS product. Your owners manual states the recommended ratings for all fluids. Pour in whatever you grew up with that meets the spec.
