big JT-my loader tractor is the only one I had any PS problems with- bought it with 5xxx hours on a non-working hour meter. After two years the tranny went out, JD mechanic said it looks like a plantation tractor (I bought it from a jockey). Been working fine since, after a 1980 $2500 rebuild. I could never get used to a synchro- drove some, but never liked the system. Granted, it is what you get used to. Familiarity- good choice of words. In the early days I had some hired help, then mrs and kids- one reason to get all field and yard tractors with the same tranny, etc. They could switch from one to another without missing a beat. I grew up with AC, but farm with JD and some AC. Still like the orange.
