I decided I should show the SDD community that I actually do work, and am not really on here all the time (like some have accused)
This is my latest project rebuilding a 16 x16 semi-powershift transmission in a New Holland 8340 (farm tractor)

here is the tractor split twice to remove the transmission

I already got over 20 hours in this job, will be over 60 time it's done
Cost of job- $6- 7,000

Hey Roy do they know you snuck in the back? Normally it is employees only beyond the showroom.

6 to 7 grand for a re-buid? WOW, glad i'm not in the farmin' biz.

What does a new one cost Roy?

I know a re-built for our Pete's are around 4500.00

Roy, if you can put that thing back together and it works like it should, you can do anything I would think. Good Luck.

It aint cheap. I am amazed at what it takes to split a tractor, and have alot of respect for the people that do it. The only tractor I have split is a Case VAC, many many many many times. But that isnt saying much. What would your charge to rebuild an engine on a Ford 9600 just out of curiosity.

I didn't price a new one (would be a reman) but I would guess 15-20,000 (that's just for the transmission, you have to install it too )
