We farmed with a SMTA as main power into the late 1980s, it had a fasthitch I think from 400 when it was a few years old. Pulled 3-14s fasthitch plow in tough ground, usually 2nd gear, a 13ft fasthitch vibra shank field cultivator and a 12 ft disc, ran duals on it. Never had a failure in the trans or rearend other than couple bearings, had a couple chipped teeth on bull gears as a result of the balls going through them, that makes a heck of a noise by the way, and broke 3 axles, probably as a result of the added weight of fasthitch implements, the made doing wheelies easy. But we probably worked that beast as hard and long as anyone and it held up well. It still gets used from time to time, had to drill beans the last few years with it.It had 4 1/8" firecraters and a 400 head so it was making good power.Rear wheels were filled with calcium and 2 sets of weights for a long time. I wouldn't complain.
