An agricultural vehicle transmission may comprise a housing comprising a bulkhead where the bulkhead may divide the housing into a sump and a reservoir. The bulkhead may comprise an opening configured to fluidly couple the sump and the reservoir. A plurality of transmission gears may be disposed in the reservoir of the housing. The opening in the bulkhead may balance the vehicle transmission system to remove excess oil in the sump and away from the plurality of transmission gears.
