L3200 DT 4x4, trans filter

[BWSSR]

I'm about due for the 50 hour service...according to my book, I need to change the hydo filter, but it doesn't say the fluid. On the HST trans all the fluid is required to be changed.....if I just change the filter, how much fluid will leak out? Should I go ahead and buy all 7 gallons?

Thanks!

There is a lot of information and opinions on this subject. A search should show several threads dealing with the topic.

I'm of the opinion that the fluid and filter should both be changed at 50 hours.

Others have different opinions.
