ALR's post is from the thread you posted in 2020.
Hy-tran Ultra is MS1210.
There are aftermarket brands that meet the ms1210 spec.

Would that be chevron brand?

The problem with where I live here in southeast Alaska is I only have access to napa, a chevron distributor and there's a rental outfit that sells john Deere oils, no access to hy-tran

Chevron 1000 THF is good alternative to HyTran.

Just for the hydraulics.

Does chevron make an oil that could be used for wet brakes and the hydraulics like hytran. The reason i ask Id like to buy a 50 gallon drum and change my hydraulic oil and have some left over i could use later elsewhere in the machine. When I serviced the rear end and transmission a few years back I bought john Deere hygard and some of the additive from case
THF 1000 is what I use in my 555E rear end and hydraulics.

THF 1000 is a good product. Delta Western in JNU, SIT, YAK or KTN could hook you up. I saw some on the shelf in JNU last time I was at the terminal.

It can be used in the transmission, but as ALR advised, the Case axle (anti-chatter) additive should be put in it.

Do you know, could it also be used for the hydraulic system? I only ask because I'm trying to buy a quality oil that will work for the rear end, transmission and hydraulics, because I'd rather buy a fifty gallon drum, it would be the cheapest means for me considering where I live

Ok, I've gone back and re-read all this information, I apologize, missed a spot. Where I live I can get chevron 1000 and john Deere hygard , my question would be, in your opinion, which would work the best for the transmission, rear end and hydraulics? Thank you
In my opinion it’s personal preference and to be honest if those were the two options I decided on, I would pick whichever is cheapest.
