I have no first-hand experience, but...
A neighbor sold these on his lot for a few years. He dropped the line after "piss poor quality" problems. He related ordering in a replacement part (a month to get it), only to find that it was cast so poorly that it was near broken in the same place as the original.
He sends inquiries to me, now. Says my 50 year old tractors are better quality.
