Gentleman, I am looking at buying a tractor to replace my Ford 800. One of the current front runners is a David Brown 880 with a quick connect loader.

What do I need to know about this machine?

Make sure you can get parts. A Case-IH dealer should be able to get them. We had a 990 at work. The P.S. pump started leaking and had to buy a new style as parts weren't made for the orginal any more. Big $$$$. Other than that a very good tractor.

I have owned a David Brown 770 for over 25 years. It is a 3 cylinder diesel, with 12 forward speeds, and 4 reverse. Has live pto and hyrdalics with a 2 stage clutch. Very good tractor for me, The only repair was clutch replacement, and now it need brake linings replaced, which appears to be a big job. I have to take off loader and rear wheels I think. I put a block heater in it and it starts easily in below zero weather.

When you replace the brake lining be careful where you buy them. There was some bad linings on the market. I just went through some.

Need a little more info. The 880 started production in 1961 and went to 1970. There were three different 880's built. Is it a white or red one. Does it say Implematic or Selectamatic on the hood. There were two different Implematic's, one had three cylinder diesel and the other a four cylinder diesel. There was also a David Brown 880 Diesel on the one tractor slated for the U.S.A. only in 1965 which is a rare one.

I'm sure they are all better than the 800.

I have only seen literature on the 800. Never came across one yet. Did you have one?

I did that once. Sold the 800 at auction and started looking for a replacement. Ended up with a Farmall 300. Should have kept the 800.
