well he purchased the 53 jubilee no i got to help him with all the info on it such as how much oil it holds and what kind and what type hd oil and how much and trans as well i know the info is here i goggle it but didn't find what i was looking for help

engine, buy 6 quarts, you will need some fo rhte oil bath air filter. I reccomend 15w40 if temps aren't below 0'F though 10w30 is usually fine int hem. red tiger OHV engines generally can make up to 55 psi oil pressure if not all calpped out.. even worn ones usually run in the mid 30's

you will want to use UTF fluid meeting M2C134spec for the hyds..

trans and diffy can use that utf, OR 80w90 gl5 gear oil.


hyds has a dipstick on left rear inspection cover.

tranny has a level plug aft of right heel just above the running board.

diffy have a level check plug on the left rear side of the axle trumpet.

I don't have my manual ready, but the hyds can hold UP TO 3g, but doesn't need more than 6-8 qts unless you are running external hyds.

diffy and trans will be similar.. 8qts or so.. economics wise.. just grabbing a 5g pail of utf fluid ( store brand fine if meets specs ).. will probably get you there.... might need an additional gallon for top offs.. but check first..

trans drain is under trans.. is a bung...fill is by shifter.

hyds drain is a bung under hyds center section.. fill is a cap under lft leg under seat.

diffy drain is a pip plug under diffy, fill is a cap under back of seat / right but cheek.

always best to do a complete service on a new-to-you machine.

that includes greasing all lube points, front spindles, etc.

checking front wheel beairngs / hubs, front steering components, lubing steering box.. checking for play.. adjusting backlash on sector gears..and checking for thrust bearing play.. adjusting brakes.. checking for pto shaft thrust play / leaks..e tc.. etc.. do that befor ethe diffy and hyds service as removing the pto shaft to repalce a seal drains those 2 sumps. don't want to do it twice..

[Soundguy]

been checking out some 53 jubilees are all of them called golden jubilee or is that a serious of the 53 the one where working on now is a golden jubilee

1953 was the 50'th aniversery for ford.. thus units built during that yer were dubbed the golden jubilee.. model is still a naa... SOME EARLY NAA WERE PRODUCED IN 1952 FOR THE MODEL YEAR 53 ( darn caps ).. then the 53 yr models.. then the 54 yr models that were only produced part of the year as the 5500 series started into production. thus what that means is the 1952 are the most scarce.. the 1954 are the next most scarce.. adn the 53 are the common ones few differences. nose badge and a bushing in the flywheel..e tc.. sn location..
