anyone know if this will work. The Idea is great. Why only the 4000 series tractors. What is ment by iMATCH compadible attachment's. I wonder if normal 3pt hith Attachments can be converted to be used. I can't find much on the internet about this, Maybe the imatch system isn't the only system that preforms this task.?????

I bought my 790 new in 2000 and it came with the 70 fel.
I love it but i would love the quick attach bucket much more in the 419 loader..
My advise is your spending lot's of $$$ on a tracktor you don't want a loader that is pached on. get a deere. then when you go to sell the unit you have a john deere resale all around

your wheels must be different in the U.S. My Back tire's are not dished at all. were they meet the hub is completly centered in the rim. there is no way you could get a wider stance by reversing them.<br>

I have use a 790 to build my complete acrage. I have never felt the fel to be underpowerd. sometime's when i burrie it into 1/4down lime stome gravel it stuggles but that is heavey. I have a 70 series loader and have found the bucket that it came with a bit small. put it this way, I could not fit anything that was to heavy for the loader to lift into the bucket anyway. If you are useing pallet fork's that might be a different storey.
I feel that i wouldn't want to lift any more weight than the 70 fel can lift with the 790 size of tractor anyway.
If I could do it again however I think I would have spent the money and bought a 990 John Deere. I sometime's could have used the size weight and power. But 99% of the time the 790 is perfect.

Might want to concider resale value. My experence in Canada is that if you buy green you sell green. Don't know if it is the same in the U.S.A. I Think That Kubota also has great resale. I went with the 790 because of resale and dealer location. Also I found that Deere was the best line for stocking a wide variety of parts. (No down time was big for me )

I found the o-ring needed to stop the leak. Must of fallen off when i removed housing. In other news i found a company in the US that make a kit to convert to universal skid stear attachments. The ATI corporation manufacturs what is called the tach-all quick attach system. If you search on google with the word tach-all it is the first site to pop up. They have a package fabracated specifically for the 70 series loader.look's very professional. They also make all kinds of really nice attachments for your fel. worth checking out

I'm feeling kinda stupid right now.
I seached to the bottom of my old oil and found a o-ring. I new there had to be something. Thank you so much for responding to my problem. Do you guys think it would be ok to salvage the new oil that i used. I am assuming that i have to drain all oil again before replacing the o-ring

I have and new question now.
After reading the topics on this mesage board i thought it might be a good idea to change my hydrolic oil in my 790 john deere with 90 hours. I removed the screen and cleand out all metal shaveings. Now i can't get the area were the screen is to stop leaking. Did you have this problem with your 790? There was no gasket! Should there be? It just slowly dripps and is driving me mad.
