Where to buy fluids?

[orangetree]

I misread the manual - transmission FLUID only needs to be swapped at 400hrs ... break-in/50hrs only changes the transmission FILTER.

it was transmission fluid i can't find ... so i guess i'm OK for now.

motor oil wasn't as bad for availability - Rotella 6t has good opinions; I ended up with Mobile Delvac synthetic (5w40 for winter, 15w40 for summer) as rotella was difficult to get in my area

Interesting. I always buy Rotella at Walmart.

For the first five years or so - oils, greases, filters from the Kubota dealer in Spokane. This got REALLY OLD - the drive into Spokane.

Now I get it all locally from either O'Reileys or NAPA. Shell Rotella and all the required filters.

zombie thread - but figure i'd post here before creating a new one

what is everyone using now - I agree with OP, i'd like to use what the manual specifies. However, i can't find ANYTHING from that list**

well, i can see a couple vendors at > $150/5-gallon for the MobilFluid424 ... hoping for at least close to $100/5-gal ~ $20/gal

Mobolfluid 424...

I've used TSC Traveller and Wolfshead (dealre recommendation). The whine is awful with both.

I just bought a pail of DELVAC at TSC and there is a rebate. Read this thread:

Mobil Delvac Tractor Hydraulic Fluid 124788 and Mobil fluid 424 the same? good/bad

OK so i have a stupid question are theses the same fluids or different and can i use the Delvac in my 2017 CK2610HST i ordered a 5GL container off amazon of the 424, got it several weeks ago did not really look close at it until today it says Mobil Delvac Tractor Hydraulic Fluid...

For engine oil I use full synthetic Rotella T6. Got it last time at TSC at a good rice for 2.g gal. Wally World had it too. I use WIX filters for engine oil, Daedong for Hydro.

NAPA's synthetic about 105 or so year and half ago...worked just fine......when the Kioti recommend ones were considerably higher. NAPA had same specs. Kubota did not carry the synthetic and their gallon bucket was equal to or tad higher.
at 820 hours when it get near 1k hours will go back to NAPA five gallon buckets.
Only down side is no 1 gallon bottles for topping off. So had to get the local Orange dealer for two gallons to top off. Otherwise yup still satisfied...
