Brands do not matter as much (except those that just look like implements but ar made from soft scrap metal) The key is bearings, and bearing protection. Older IH had ribbed bushings that were slow to wear out, but did so and get looser and higher in friction as they wear. I like well guarded and sealed deep groove relubable ball bearing equipped harrows.
The best chassis grease I have found is Ford specification Graphite based cartridge grease. It is black, and stringy. The Molebdnum Disulfide based greases are also great. JimN

The key is lubrication. Sealed bearings are "lubed for life" which in my opinion means when the lube fails the bearings life is over. Grease fittings are a main positive factor in long life. The early IH bearings were bushing type, with high wear and more friction. I prefer relubable (fittings) on ball type bearings with good seals and trash guards/shields on them. JimN
