What's the best fluid to run in both. I have read that SAE 30 or 80w-90 gear oil will work.

Sorry. It's for a Cat 951C.
Cat always called for the same 30wt oil that was used in the desiel engine to be used in the transmission and steering clutches A 30wt oil with series 3 ,CD rated
or TO specs current
Final drives was changed from 30wt to 80/90 wt gear oil
Personally I would use 80/90 in final drives ,as I have seen a lot of final drive failures in 941 & 951 tractors when 30 wt was used
In a warm climate ,I would even use 140 wt ,and it was used by CAT for a while in all final drives

Testimonials

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
