I know this has probably been discussed before but thought I would ask anyway.
Am looking at a 1466 with 5500 hours on it. Overall appears in decent shape, needs paint. When I drove it the torque seemed to hold and brakes as well. 3 point worked but noticed the hytran was over the full mark. Also noticed when you idled the engine down the power steering went away. Talked to the last owner(2nd owner) and he filled me in on a couple things. When he owned it he had problems with the 3 point not raising. Talked to an IH mechanic and he said there is a small oring inside on the suction tube that could be leaking and drawing air. Told him he could either over fill it or remove the pto housing and replace the o-ring. After the owner overfilled the hytran the 3 point worked fine. I'm thinking I've heard of this issue before has anyone? Also the remote are not working well in that the owner tried to use it on a drill and it would not raise the drill very fast at the end rows when idling the engine down. Is that possibly connected with the loss of power steering and any ideas on the problem. The engine and PTO has been overhauled about 700 hours ago. Got the dealer down to $6500. Is that still too much? Also noticed the front end is very loose. Does IH make any kind of rebuild kit for the front ends? Any commnets as always are greatly appreciated.

heck, i'd buy it! That's a LOTTA LOTTA tractor for that price, and none of its problems sound real extra serious, in other words, you can probably fix them all pretty easy and cheap.

You should be able to rebuild the front end. The only thing that would efect both hitch and power steering both would be an air leak on the sucksion side and filter over filling would help if it has air leak if not have the dealer test the pumps for flow and pressure if he wants to sell he should test.
