I'm thinking of buying a 784. I have found one in the $3500.00 range. The tractor has been well used,slightly abused and needs some money spent on it. The tach doesn't work so no idea of the hours. I would guess around 8-10 thousand. I plan to use it for bush hogging and rough work so I'm not intrested in cosmetics. The engine runs out good with no smoke,leaks,etc although it did seem a bit sluggish. It has problems with the brakes and parking brakes that seem to be common with this series and I'm figuring on replacing the clutch. I noticed something odd with the clutch. It seemed to be slow on take off when starting in the higher gears and gain speed after traveling a few feet. It didn't feel like a typical clutch slip. It felt to me more like a T/A tractor taking off in low range and switching into high. The guy told me he'd been pulling a disk with it and hadn't had any clutch slipping problems. I looked but didn't see any T/A linkage or any sign that it had a disabled T/A. Has anyone experienced anything like this? Also,is it possible to install a T/A in a non T/A tractor while replacing the clutch? Any info and feedback will be greatlt appreciated Thanks, David
