Russ, I've had my 4600 for 8 years and it hasn't done me wrong. Service parts are available through CNH. You might have to be a bit stubborn with the parts man but they are there. The Selectomatic refers to the hydraulic setting ranges. There are 3 setting locations that will do a range of things. Mine has a DB/ Albion loader on it and is run through the tractor's hydraulic system and lifts good for it's size. The 4600 is rated at 46 hp., but is more compact than you'd expect a 46 hp. tractor to be.
If you go to Tractor data Peter has I picture of the 4600 transmission pattern. I've got the 3rd lever at the top left that splits the transmission into another H/ L range. I haven't seen another DB with that set up. DB was making gear boxes and transmissions when Harry Ferguson partnered with DB to make his first models before Harry partnered with Henry stateside. DB then started producing their own tractors and I believe DB in some capacity is still manufacturing power components. I haven't heard of any problem with the drive trains or transmissions. The 3 cylinder gas is a bit rare for a DB and a bit less efficient than their diesels were. The 4600 and 3800 were gassers made for the American market and imported in the late 60's before Tenneco merged DB in the CASE line.

Today's Featured Article - Restoration Story: 1964 JD 2010 Dsl - Part 2 - by Jim Nielsen. Despite having to disassemble the majority of my John Deere 2010's diesel engine, I was still hopeful I could leave the engine-complete with crankshaft and camshaft-in the tractor. This would make the whole engine rebuild job much easier-and much less expensive! I soon found however, that the #4 conrod bearing had disintegrated, taking with it chunks of the crankshaft journal.
