Tonytoro416 1,275 #1 Posted October 12 I can’t seem to find anywhere what hydraulic fluid I should use for the lift pump in grandpas 953. Any suggestions on what you guys use Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevasaurus 23,456 #2 Posted October 12 This will work fine for you. Available at Tractor supply. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
953 nut 62,198 #3 Posted October 13 I think the 953 manual calls for ATF but the Tractor Supply Hydraulic Fluid works well and costs less. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oliver2-44 10,978 #4 Posted October 13 If there is any fluid in it can you tell if it is red or tan. You don’t want to mix ATF and hydraulic oil. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tonytoro416 1,275 #5 Posted October 13 It pretty well drained down. Then I disassembled and rebuilt the pump, new hoses and rebuilt cylinder also so it’s all new 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
