| If I recall the sales literature said the 3300 replaced the 45, the 4400 the 55, the 6600 the 95, and the 7700 the 105. It said each new model had 25% more capacity than the one it replaced. I've had a 40,55,4400,and a 6600. Granted the older ones were easier to work on but the 00 series aren't that bad.....Ron |

| A diesel 4400 should have no problem keeping up with a 95. I used to own a 4400 and it kept up with a 105 in the same field. Actually, it did more than the 105. Has to be tuned, though. Mike |

| I've only ever driven a 4420, and a white 7300 and I can't decide what I hated more. Engine beside me or directly behind....

| Green and Sky are correct.BTW,even though they are older and somewhat more primitive,I would much rather own an x5 series than a xx00 series.... |

| I have both series and I like them both. If I had a couple of hundred acres to cut or less I would take a 5 series. If I had to cut 500 or more acres I would take a 00 series. Like others said, the 5 series are easier to work on and maintain but 00 series are more convenient to run IMO. Unless you have a 5 series from the last 2 years of production, they will have the chain drive cylinder and them stupid shims on the fan pulley. How many of the SB 5 series were diesel percentage wise compared to the 00 series. Same thing with hydros? Its a lot easier to find a 6600 or 770 hydro then a 105 or 95. |

| I am very familiar with both series-more so with the x5 series.At present,I own :55 roundback;95 sb;late 105 corn(gas) speacial/variable speed cylinder;just sold my 45sb and have just purchaced a 105R(diesel).Not to be a "know it all",you probably cant tell me much about the x5 combines......but there is still much to learn!! |

| And figure this one out- when JD had the x5 series there were a few around here, but probably more Gleaners than anything. When JD came out with the xx00 series, they virtually took over the whole market here, and haven't looked back. I don't understand. The cab beside engine thing never appealed to me. |

| Well back in the fall of 1969 when the 00 series came out, half the combines around here didn't even have cabs including ours. So I don't think the engine next to the cab was a big deal at that time. 20 years later different story. Plus the 00 series was the first really new combine seperator design since 1949. As good as the 5 series were, they were an old design that dated all the way back to the early 40s. JD did great work to stretch that design. |

| I have to agree with Delta Red on that one. The early 4400 sure was not much of a replacement for a 95 in capacity either. |

| According to JD, the 3300 replaced the 45/55, 4400 replaced the 95, and 6600 replaced the 105. The 7700 was a new top of the line size. |

| I'm no JD person when it comes to combines...I'm a Gleaner guy... but for a fast answer the 45/55/95/105 (adding to your list) were replaced by the 3300/4400/6600/7700 and that series was later updated to the 4420/6620/7720 (I think the 3300 was dropped somewhere along they way, not sure what year so no 3320). The JD guys will come along and add much more info. Mike |

| | I am here to tell you that a 4400 wouldn't work with a good, tuned up 95. I have read where JD felt that the 3300 was a replacement for the 55, the 4400 for the 95, the 6600 for the 105 and the 7700 was just a larger capacity machine that was a new size altogether. As to using one, a 4400 is over 30 years old, and the 55 is 40...but unless you find a 4400 that was hermetically sealed in a barn in 1976, you are going to have to work on both of them...the 55 is A LOT better machine to work on. And a 4400 gasser can't be kept cool unless its not running. |
