We looked at and bought a 8970 with 9500 hours. We were told the power shift tranny was a reman replacement from CNH a little over a year ago with $30k in it. The engine was never touched which has me worried but it ran and sounded good. The rear brakes have been replaced.
Should I be worried that is has front duals on the Dana axle. We will not need them but they are included.
They have some little things to fix. The counsel adjustment doesn't move. The radio is not working. One of the flow control cables is froze up. Some knobs are missing up top.
What else do we need to look at as we only put a down payment on it.
We will be trading in the 9000 as we don't need 4 big tractors for 300 acres.
I estimate we will put on 150 hours a year on it..
