Biggest thing to look out for are high hours and the turbos being turned up. It was real easy to turn up a 1086 and treat it like a 1586 and a lot of people did that. I've seen a lot of 1486s turned up to 180-190 hp - that's probably where people got the idea they had a "weak" transmission.

The other issue is these tractors came out just before and during the farm crisis of the 1980s - lot of maintenance was skipped trying to save money during that time frame.

Really nice ones will go more than your stated price range:

Heres one for $5800 but it needs a new clutch before you do anything.
