OMG!! Well done!! Er....it looks like it will be completely "Well Done" very soon!!

Well here's the loader I just got done with rebuilding the hydraulic cylinders it's a woods b206, they were so bad that if you turned them shaft down they just dropped out. I'm going to have to get new hoses these are really cracked. So I have a question my manual says too use 10/30 ms oil in the loader I've been using regular hydraulic oil,has anyone heard of using regular oil?

Hydraulic fluid is fine to use.

I've never heard of using regular oil in hydraulic systems before that's why I asked about it thanks Bruce

One more question is the bucket supposed to be black or orange on this loader? It's really nasty right now lol

Bobcat uses motor oil in older skid steers because the oil also runs hydraulic motors and the motor oil has wear reducers.

Stock Woods loaders had black buckets.

Thanks I thought so mine is down to bare metal with rust in the corners my cylinders are black so I guess the bucket would be too

Some of the OLD MOPARs use the engine oil for the transmission I believe so yep

A modern AW hydraulic oil formulation has those magical anti-wear additives. Typically ZDDP which has the added benefit of being an anti-oxidant.
