MN | installed the ATC 300 system on a JD 4wd several years ago when first came out..
was pitched as similar to integrated performance and less cost..
performance is ok i would say, the install isn't bad but it also isn't a factory integrated system..
cost when all said and done wasn't the bargain made out to be, and i did the install myself...
after using it now for several years, i wish i had done the factory system install for the little more it cost.
we had issues last spring with the motor collecting fine dust under the cover and causing errors...
tech support for the atc unit seems to be piss poor at best. but maybe its just my dealer.
we replaced a ATU unit with the ATC unit, main reason was to get rid of the knee knocker.
the help is happy to be gone with knee knocker, as everything else is integrated...
fair warning, parts are stupid expensive , its honestly cheaper to buy a atu 300 than replace the
valve or valve motor if something happens.
plus the down time and seems local dealers don't stock parts for the ATC units.
