I have a 4700 that I bought new in 2000. It's been a great tractor and since I live in TX I have been using hy-gard in the transmission & front axle. I noticed that some models of John Deere use 80-90 weight gear oil in the front axle. Are the two types of lube interchangeable in the front axle? Has anyone switched to 80-90 weight in their 4xxx series tractor?
Like I said earlier, it's been a great tractor. My only complaint is the plastic hood, side panels, grill, & cowl become brittle with age.
