Hi everyone,
I bought an old 1987 Case 580K (Phase I) and I'm looking for help identifying all compatible transaxle fluids. The service manual calls for 20.5 quarts of Case Transaxle Fluid (MS 1317). The only thing I've been able to find from Case which appears to be what I need is their Premium Transaxle Oil - #73344324

The only other oil I've been able to find is from Viscosity. . .
Are there any other options or more economical alternatives that isn't going to break the bank?

The MAT specifications appear to be aircraft grade from what I could find. But there's no mention of MS1317 which does give me pause. . . and the price is $214 for 5 gallons!The description says: "enables smooth, noise-free operation in axles — especially those fitted with oil-immersed brakes — under a wide range of speeds, loads and torques."
Specifications list:
SAE 80W-140
MAT 3515-B
The only other oil I've been able to find is from Viscosity. . .
TUTELA® SAE 80W-140 Transaxle Fluid
This one doesn't list MAT 3515-B, but it does specify MS 1317. This oil is priced at $231 for 5 gallons!MEETS THE REQUIREMENTS OF:
- CNHI MAT 3510, MAT 3515-A
- API GL-4
- MS 1317
- NH 600TR
- ZF TE-ML 05F
- ZF TE-ML 21F
Are there any other options or more economical alternatives that isn't going to break the bank?
