My 1086 has had several through it's 15000 hour life and I've done, or not done, everything I have heard of to try to make it last longer. Oil changes yearly, not pulling it back to use it as a brake, not pulling it for very long in under drive, and on and on. I've even heaard that pulling wagons over rough ground in underdrive will take the TA out from the jerking on the spragues.

With my luck it'll go out a few months out of warranty. The mechanics that do the replacements are very competent, experienced lifetime IH mechanics.
Now that it's a loader tractor I just leave the TA in direct drive. Jim
