I have a #8 W, only difference is on the W the sickle bar sets farther out for row crop tractors. I have used mine a lot and like it very much. I used a #5 before and it worked ok but think at least for me the #8 has been better. Sickles and some other parts are interchangeable with the #5. A lot of the secret is keeping the mower sharp and adjusted properly.

Probably the worst mower JD ever built. They didn't cut nearly as well as the #5. Seems the stroke on the sickle wasn't quite right as I recall. Also the gear cases were always having problems. We had a used one for a short time with a lot of problems. Bought a new one thinking the used one had been misused and fought with it for 2 years. Parked it and went back to the well used #5.

I paid $60 for one in northern NY a couple of years ago but it took a $100 in parts to make it go. I think 150 to 200 would be fair.
