We have an 8360 which is the same tractor but less horsepower. We had to put an axle seal in because a piece of twine got picked up and wrapped around the axle. Other than that no problems with her in over 4000 hrs. The Agcostar had a Roadranger transmission, same as a semi tractor or heavy truck. Shifting to get to full road speed is just like shifting a truck transmission. When you in the field just find a gear that pulls well and go with it, they have plenty of umpth to pull through the tough spots it seems. These tractors also have great hydraulic capacity. If your interested in it and could buy it reasonably, you wouldnt go wrong I dont think. Most parts are common truck parts on this tractor. Could you put a link to the sale up, I am curious myself. So I know this post is old but I was on tractorhouse just browsing and saw a couple 8360's and was wondering about them so my searches lead me here!! I have a couple questions though!! Is there an air compressor to run splitter or are they electric? When turning on ends can you split a gear? Is an 8360 pretty good on fuel? (seems like it would be, big cubes lower hp seems would make plenty of torque!) Did any of them ever have pto? Are the cabs pretty nice? (seem about the same as my new holland 9282) 18 speed would be nice and they are cheap to O.H. in truck application so seems they would be in this too!! Thanks for any info! |
