My 864G started bucking when going forward, do I need to change the hydro fluid or did I use the wrong kind?
864G bucks going forward

Bucking can be caused by a number of things. Worn out shock absorber(s) on steering linkage, Loose or worn parts in steering linkage itself, drive motor(s) outer bearing starting to fail, possibly brakes not releasing completely.
Start with the steering system this is most common cause due to normal wear.

I have a T200, which is your machine with different decals. My machine also bucks when moving, especially with higher RPMs.
I think a lot of it is operator technique. I find that if I back down a few hundred RPM, and move the sticks very carefully, the jerking is less. I've read that wear in the Bobtach can cause bucking, and that could be a possibility. I know that my wedges are worn, and I presume the thinking is that the bucket or attachment can "catch" and release rapidly and cause bucking.
