Topic

I have herd this from many JD machanics, in some cases It may be true however, no all cases I have a 855 and it seams that every year I have to change the gears in the left side some people it's the right for me its the left. If there was a race team for these tractors I could work on the pit crew because i'm so fast at changing out these gears, back to the point, the last two times the gears failed the loader was not even installed, what i was doing is pulling in soft dirt, and the other time I was pushing snow with a blade. This is nothing but a poor design, when you remove the gears you can see the gears do not mesh properly and there is no available shims for this application. not all 855's have this problem I know someone that has one, and has had no trouble, this tells me it's a casting flaw that John Deere had to be aware of and failed to own up to it, so we the consumer gets it in the end (and I mean end)
