follow-up to previous post about value, thanks for the input. looking at buying this tractor. new to Case. what is the reputation of this model? current owner says shift forks have disengaged 3-4 times in the last year during hard/careless shifting locking tractor in two gears. says this is a known weakness for this model? thanks again in advance!

I know of one that has over 17000 hrs. It was rebuilt at 9000 hrs (didn't really need it) and had the turbo replaced at 15000hrs. It will hang in third gear. You must be rolling to get it out of gear.

Yes they were prone to have the shift forks wear. Earlier David brown tractors never had this problem. Case must have used lower quality material in making them. I have changed a few and it is about a 16 hour job. Otherwise the 1490 is a decent tractor. Have heard reports of them passing 15000 hours on the meter.
