I have always used 80-90 gear oil in my HD 5. But we never get sub 0 weather, it can get in the teens but always gets above freezing in the afternoon. If you are thinking of pushing snow with it liter may be better.
Baker company being long gone, just keep looking at places that have old tech type books like some sellers on Ebay and other places.
I have never been around a Baker blade, but have seen some at a distance. Other than the hydraulics not much to worry about that a welder cannot fix. If you need hydraulic repairs, you need a good hydraulic repair shop that can match old seals up to newer ones they can get by size. Old part numbers are not much good. |

80-90 is basically the same viscosity as 50w sae engine oil. so not much difference unless you have alot of time below zero then maby 30w engine oil would be better
