I hear the John Deere's have lite rearends, does anyone know the facts ? The rear ends seem to be pretty heavy. I understand that the JD 5045D overall curb weight is about 100lbs heavier, than the MF 2605.The MF 2605 is 38hp 32PTO and the JD is 45hp 37PTO, I don't know the torque ratings of the JD,though.Something I noticed about the John Deere, I didn't seem to like, is where the fuel tank is located (right behind the seat)The MF has a higher Lift capacity than the JD, by about 300lbs in the 2605-2615 models. The MF 2605 doesn't have diff lock, but the JD 5045D does. Limited Slip is sometimes better, as I also understand it.Both models are manufactured in India.
