Had a problem with my 6400, some kind of clutch pack disc wore through a drum and I lost 3rd gear. Cost about 4k to repair. But tractor had 6 or 7000 hours at that point,and on a loader, so I guess it was about time. Otherwise, helluva good transmission.

Just bought a 7800 Power Shift and really like it. I have heard of a few problems but usually another circumstance led up to the problem.

The Power shift tractors had hard shifting issues when cold. They shifted harder than the 15 speed they replaced. The Power Quads are just about bullet proof. The only advantage of the Power shift is a faster road gear than the 16 speed power Quad. The newer 20 speed power quads have the faster road speed.

A JD 7800 with only 4000 hours should not have any issues with the transmission. I like the power quads over the power shifts.
