The old Satoh S630D manual that I use for my Mitsubishi D2000iiFD shows that the Rear Final Drive uses SAE250 Gear Oil but front differential uses SAE80EP.
I know there were some changes regarding the transmission/hydraulic oil spec and that the general consensus was to use UTF in trans/hyd but haven't seen anything about using SAE250 in final drives.
About the only SAE250 I have found is an Amsoil GL5 SAE250 that I would have to order. What are others using for this? Is the GL5 ok in the final drives?

Thanks

I HAD a Mitsubishi tractor. Great machine. Very reliable. If I had any questions I'd contact: Valley Power

Thanks Roadworthy!
I wanted to post back, I checked with Valley Tractor they were very helpful, I was unable to get a SAE250 oil and ended up using a SAE140 GL4 oil.

I'm glad your problem is resolved. Many older lubricants which were once specified are no longer available. The newer gear oil probably has better lubrication qualities than the old one anyhow.
