Advance Auto has it on sale http://shop.advanceautoparts.com/bu...hield-part-sthe35-45609-hydraulic-fluids.html and was wondering if anyone uses it and how it is for an older tractor like mine?

If I read it right that is just hyd oil not trans/hyd oil. If you have a seperate hyd system it might work but it's not for transmissions.
All the differently branded "303" fluids are essentially the same and not beneficial for your Kubota.
Stay with at least a UDT equivalent (SuperUDT for newer machines). I use Chevron THF1000 with good luck but any direct cross-referenced brand should work. Avoid those fluids that claim compatability by listing machine brands instead of specific fluid listings.

Gurn, you might want to check with a local fuel supplier. Where I get my fuel also handles bulk oil. I bought a drum of trans/hyd fluid from my fuel guy for a little under $7 per gallon. I thought that was a good price for cheap oil.
