all the masseys i have driven but the 2805. The 1080 and 1085 are known to blow head gaskets. I love the White Americans but they are average to below average farm tractors. Cousin bought 1 with under 1500 hours and hydraulics, front end (FWA) all needed replaced. Other cousins have an 80 that hasnt done much but run a disc bine and its had more than its fair share of problems as well. Granted those are just 2 examples but I would say they make a better collector than a farm tractor. Now with all that said, I hope to own both a 60 and an 1855 in the future.
Naming the problem tractors is tough and I was going off of what I had seen on here previously. As far as the best models go, I am very familiar with them, especially the Oliver's, White's and Massey's.
By the way J, I am replacing the rockshaft seal on my 1655 this weekend. I know I need to take the PTO off. Any special recommendations? Doesnt sound like it will be too hard of a job. I got 2 rockshaft seals and then the PTO gasket seal as well. Should solve the leaking problem from around the PTO.
