South Central Illinois | Don't have much experience with the 9rx but after 3 quads I am more than happy with them. Most of the issues guys talk about with failing bogey wheels and seals comes down to maintenance and observance. We try and keep long road hauls around 15-16mph which keeps the bogeys from getting to hot. We also keep a bag of shop dry in the cab of each quad to keep the tracks and bogeys on long hauls. A cup of shop dry on each one every 20-30 mins on the road really cuts down on heat and power usage. Keep the tracks in line, use kile caps, and keep the ground speed a little lower and you'll never have a problem. It might take an hour to change a seal so it's really not a big deal. The early ones had a lot of issues with a poorer design but from 2006 up seem to be about bulletproof. The cab suspension on our 620 makes the ride plenty smooth and rides better than any tractor we have in the field including the 8rs with ILS. I hope everyone buys the Deere 9RX so I can buy all the cheap used quads haha. Just a humble opinion | |
