While it's common to put grease in the steering gears, I would never do that in the transmission as the situation is entirely different. The transmissions have oil channels for the oil to flow through the bearings. The gears sling the oil up into the channels and then it flows by gravity through the channels to the bearings and back down to the sump. If there is only gease in there, the bearings may not get proper lubrication and cooling. This would be especially true under heavy load. All that said, seems like the bearings in the transmissions of these old tractors last forever in spite of a lot of abuse. I overhauled a Super H transmission a few years ago and I replaced several bearings due to wear. The oil flow channels were all blocked up with sludge and I think the bearings wore due to inadequate cirulation of the oil.
