Agreed with All reponses ,,My Cousin and Brother each have a 400 Dry clutcher ,, Great tractor , ,,. But not the Elegant Lady My 800 Could be , Which they covet in spite of it's repairable ills .Need to look at the pump to get more pressure for the tranny ,.For this reason , I would prefer the Dry Clutch , I prefer to work on things I can easily understand , If you have kids driving on hillsides that tend to be reckless and will not listen,, BEWARE , Lock the BRAKES, Case O Matics will roll off into the hog pond , experience LOL! , Really depends on CONDITION , If The Case O matic Tranny ran out good and pressured up appropriately and held for an hour , Then CASE O MATIC Will be a thrill to have. They are Not HARD TO FIX IF YOU KNOW WHAT TO LOOK FOR .. Been around them for 40 years ,So i would know what to watch for ,As a 12 year old , i was not sure I was up to this used newcomer automatic . In Time, I Loved taking off ,then kicking it up in High Gear , or pulling Road Loads and dropping into Automatic drive until we made it to the top ,and kickingit into direct .. And , for Turns , discing 5th ,Planting 4th, Raking6th &7th , Clay Knoll Plowing 3rd or 4th, Baling OH WOW ! Yessirrie !.. However they are the most misunderstood tranny Case Built in 1958 , I Like to watch novices Try shifting the double H pattern, And Then Shake their heads When She Acts like an Automatic,, Few folks took the time to get Well Versed with this tranny . BUT I DID .. BEST WISHES jIM
