| rjw - 12/4/2011 20:46 According to my Deere rep the problem was in the the 30 and 40 series block only.The 50 series block was made thicker walled to stop the flex action.
I had a 8450, with the 466 engine. I also had head gasket problems. None of the 2 wd Deeres had
the same problem, of the same age, they will go 10,000 hrs. plus. I would agree with the flexing issue on the block. |
