If you look at the front hubs from besides of the tractor, you'll see a plug with a square hole for a 1/2 in drive ratchet. Now drive forward/back till the plug is either (clock face) 9 or 3 when plug is removed oil should just trickle out, that is the level
I'll take some pics tomorrow to explain better unless someone beats me to it
Gear oil 80w/90 in them and front axle

BUT WITH A PHOTO i still think it would be goodidea if people could do a simple walk around different makes of tractor to show people where things are , i know of one farmer never know there was a long filter in his 5150 that you pull out each time you change the oil clean it and put it back in untill my husband helped him one day to change the oil in his tractor , found a pice of a metal in it

Thats my fuel filters..View attachment 164778Check the front hubs as @rc mx110 said,either at 9 or 3 o'clock..View attachment 164780I then use a half inch ratchet and exstension to undo drain/level plug..View attachment 164782Oil should run out slightly when you undo the plug..to drain old oil out,just inch tractor back untill drain/level hole is down at 6 o'clock,then return it back to 9 or 3 o'clock to re fill with fresh oil..hope that makes sence..

beat me too it

but I will say make sure you wear latex gloves as old gear oil stinks to high heaven

I'll do the axle then

use 1/2 inch ratchet like used for the hubsfirst pic is the level plug oil should just run out, second pic is the drain plug

After hearing some gossip at cereals I would be in no rush to buy a tractor , a lot of ex hire tractors will hit the market soon.

The TM,s baffle me the 155 has 4400 hours on it and the 135 has 7300 hrs. It's the same engine apart from the inter cooler on the 155. And yes both of them have had the 10mm spanner remap.

have you had them from new ?

You are a legend!
Aaron has had to go in to college today, so his replies on here will be sporadic.
I'm sure he'll check in again soon and see this.
Thanks asm

somebody once told me if oil ever gets black in a engine it will always blacken the oil after that, maybe it is correct then ?

I love this thread, it is what life should be about, helping each other get along, not back stabbing all the time.
