    I have a 1985 JCB 3CX, I want to drain and renew the fluids but I cant find any oil recommendations except JCB Special Oil this and that etc.
    Can anyone here tell me what the Castrol equivalents are for:

    Engine oil
    Transmission Fluid
    Hydraulic Fluid

    Also where can I get a service manual for my JCB.

    Thanks.

    I have a service manual in PDF format which has everything you need. If you can PM me your email, I'll send it to you when I get home at the weekend :)

    Hey there, don't mean to hijack the thread, but would you have a manual handy for its predecessor, the 3C II?

    Had a lot of trouble finding the manuals but managed to get them of an old backup drive :D I'll upload them to my website today.

    I don't have a manual for the 3C II Max_Damage.

    I've uploaded the manual to my website. The file is around 37MB in size and is a workshop manual for the JCB 3CX and 4CX. http://www.cianmcgovern.com/jcb-3cx-and-4cx-workshop-manual
