I am looking for a tractor to put up hay with a mower conditioner and round baler, and to move round bales on 200 acres. Found an IH 1086 with loader, also a Case 2090 with powershift. The Case may cost a little more. Does anyone out there have any thoughts on using the IH for the loader work with respect to hard shifting? My Dad had a 706 that really was hard shifting and from what I understand, there is essentially no difference in the transmission between the 06 series and the 86 other than going to an H pattern on the range. Are the IH transmissions still "grind-o-matic" in the 86 series? I also have read that some of the shifting problem can be with a transmission brake adjustment. Would the Case be worth a little extra for the powershift? Thanks for any advice.
