Look into a BCS or a Grillo. They are considered two wheel walk-behind tractors and are just about indestructible. They have no belts or chains - the engine has a cone clutch mounted on it and it drives an all gear transmission in an oil bath. It has a 3 dog drive PTO that runs at 990 RPM and can run many, many attachments like a rototiller, rotary plow, reciprocating spader, chipper, snow blower, sweeper, dozer blade, sickle mower, yard mower, rough cut mower, flail mower, rake/tedder, even a round baler that makes a 22 inch by 22 inch round bale!
I have a BCS 850 with a 11 hp diesel engine and a 30 inch tiller attachment. It will till almost anything. If you're looking to break sod, you can purchase a rotary plow of similar design to the old Gravely rotary plows, but behind the machine, not in front of it. The BCS tiller tines spin at 290 RPM, twice as fast as any other brand on the market. Since it's slicing the ground twice as many times as your current troy bilt, it can handle harder ground.
You can look on Earth Tool's website. They're located in Frankfurt KY and are just about the best dealer in the country when it comes to either BCS or Grillo. Be sitting down when you look at the new price, though...

Is that efficency? Actually, it took more time to explain than it really did to do the inspection. At any rate we decided that a compression test was in order so we could verify the internal engine status. That way we wouldn't buy any tune up parts until we were sure that the engine was in reasonable mechanical condition. Our tests showed a fictional compression reading of 85, 80, 82 and 86 psi. That is well within a
