we had one for many years, had a 4 cyl perkins diesel. the L785 was also available with a Ford diesel or a Ford gas. The perkins was a real bear to start cold, always needed ether for the first start of the day. had the nh style quick attach, not the bobcat style that now is pretty universal. We used it hard and often, wore out the first bucket. it tended to always leak hyd oil from somewhere. hoses to loosen or wear through from all the vibration. we replaced it with an LS180 just cause it was worn out and needed a lot of work. comparing the two, i'd say the 180 has stronger hydraulics, but it doesn't have the weight in the back so it tips forward with a heavy load where the old one just wouldn't lift it. also in muck the 180 seems to bottom out easier.
