What is TC?

They are the same tractor. I have not been able to find out why they changed the model number. This is excellent information and thanks for all your trouble.

Looks good, but costs $200 for 5 gallons for the Tractor and is not avaible in 5 gallon containers, I can cut this to $100 just using the Tractor Supply gear oils that are GL-5. I don't want to take any risks with this tractor, that is why I am asking for help finding s suitable gear oil for my...

Is your recommendation that I use any 80/w90 GL4 or GL5? or any GL4 80/w90 or 75/w90? I need it in a 5 gallon jug since the tractor takes 4.62 gallons for maintenance and this is budgeted at $125.

The main thing I got out of it was :"Applications requiring API GL-4 or SAE 80W grade lubricants in all gear applications except hypoid gear designs." I don't think there are any hypoid gears in the front axle, so why not use the Mobile Delvac Tractor Hydraulic fluid in the front axle and four...

Do you know any examples for me? I have found a few that I will look into.

It is so expensive. Budget is $70 for 5 gallons and not over $150/5 gallons. I live in a remote area that is 100 miles from a large city, so most things come from Amazon, Walmart, or Tractor Supply delivery. That is not bad as they carry a good variety of oils. Napa also has a store 40 miles...

But this oil costs $375 for a five gallon jug. How about Ultra1Plus SAE 75W-90 Synthetic Gear Oil, API GL-4 | 5 Gallon Pail that costs $140 for 5 gallon pail delivered from Amazon. It is also available in GL-5.

Just purchased a new TYM T-1104 110 HP Tractor and trying to get everything together for the 50 hour maintenance. Most confusing is the requirement for the Front Axle gear oil. Specification is Gear Oil API-GL4 SAE 80W/90 (4.62 gallons). The closest thing I can find is a 75W90 Synthetic Gear...

I found a 75W90 Synthetic Gear Lube. It is a GL-5 made by Sinopec. Does it look like that would work well for this mower gearbox application?

Just purchased new 86 inch offset ditch flail mower and manual calls for SAE EP 90W Gear Oil for Gearbox. I will be pulling this with a TYM T-1104 Tractor with 98 HP at the PTO. Just bought 45 gallons of Shell Delvac Univ Tractor Fluid API GL-4 (Also known as Mobil Fluid 424) to use for 4...
