T/A eliminator kits are availible, but you'd lose half your gears so you'd only have 8 instead of 16 speeds ahead. Thats ok you say, except that finding just the right speed to do something for maximum efficency just got alittle harder since you now have only 6 or so off road speeds now to choose from. I'd love to get myself a newer tractor with all kinds of gimmicks and gadgets in it, my gosh the though of an isolated air conditioned cab, and a radio working on a hot day sure would be nice. instead of straddling my open stationed tractor's transmission getting cooked off the heat pouring off from the engine and transmission plus dealing with the heat of the day. Yeah, powershift transmissions are great, and sure they all eventually have problems, but the whole T/A discussion is on how they are a weak link in these tractors that can be a major PITA. Chances are the powershift transmission in the 4440 would need fewer rebuilds than a T/A equipped tractor over the years.
