He walks through specific gripes (battery/cooler location hard to clean, occasional gear pop-out on hills, a minor rear seep, a bent Land Pride box blade he re-welded himself) alongside praise for the tilt cylinder, R4 tires, and loader. Good for buyers wanting long-term reliability impressions rather than a first-look walkaround.
An independent owner-operator sharing candid, hands-on impressions from his own tractor and property rather than a dealer or sponsored channel.
Yes, going downhill in mid-range it has popped out of gear into neutral, which happened once on a hill while carrying a load of gravel.
There is an occasional small leak, just a couple drops, possibly from a rear main seal or similar seal, but it is not a major concern yet.
The owner says the hydraulic tilt cylinder is great with no leaks and calls it a must on a tractor, and the LA765 loader has been great overall.
The box blade's cutting edge channel was welded on at an angle instead of straight, causing poor cutting, so he cut it off and welded a thicker replacement himself.
