west Nebraska northeast Colorado | 50 series has more frame support for front axle than 30 series did. 466 is good engine, keep an eye on the water pump "weep hole". If it plugs with dirt (and it will unless you keep a small piece of foam in it) when the seal goes out you will dump the coolant into the engine oil. jI have an 8450 with 11,000+ hours. Bought it for tillage, ran it on tillage first 9000 hours, now use it mainly for spraying (can get through wet fields better than a MFWD) and seeding (40' set of hoe drills). If I could find another one with only 4000 hours I would serously consider buying it. |
