just wondering what oil to put in the drive motors, 80w 90 gear oil or hydraulic oil? Im guessing that i would fill it up to the filler plug? Im waiting for my manual to arrive !! Thanks in advance

    Are you referring to the planetary drive hubs on the outside of the tracks, not the drive motor istself? Most planetary hubs fill halfway with gear oil.
