The best success I had with my 745 transmission (just a bigger Allison) was using 30W engine oil giving better pressures as well as improved metal to metal protection. If you're not working the machine hard the thinner oils will do.
Currently- WD,WC,3WF's,2 D14's B. Previously- I 600,TL745,200,FL9,FR12,H3,816 LBH. Earth has no sorrow that Heaven cannot heal!

Currently i m working on engine so when i m done, i guess i'll have some more questions :-)

Thanks MikeZ

The dip stick is missing
my 1967 545d loader
dose not have a dip stick
it has two check plug about
one in. apart haft way up the tran
on the engine side
the bottom one is the low level
and the top one is the full level
check running after warming up
 and in neutral
l . mine also has
a tran filter by the engine on
the cooler line  


i have a 1967  545D with a 301
and 2 speed power shift
 i have a 545D operator
manual and in the manual it
say
lubricate these with SAE 10w oil
meeting ATF type c-1
so i think that SAE 10W oil or
ATF type C-1 is what they went
with in 1967 so i don`t think
it need anything special
i don`t know if tractor hydraulic
would work (i can`t see why not) but
the only thing that i did with mine
was to take out about 5 gal of
oil because they could not find
the dip stick
to check oil set park brake
take the top plug out with drain pan
if no oil add oil replace plug
and start engine and run at 1000 to
1500 rpm for 1 min. to charge system
then take out the bottom plug  and
add oil as required stop engine
this is what mine look like

do you have a manual HTH
if you need more info let me know
let us know how you make out

for what it's worth...I was searching net on Allisons and found a place in Texas that was rebuilder.Their info said use 15W40 oil.seems that one of the Ausies chimed in and said that's what they were using.My 78 545B has dexron in it...and it's transferring trans to hyd.Both are using dexron.

If you don't get other responses, eBay appears to have many choices, parts, service and operator's manuals.
