I have all Fords, ranging from a '53 Jubilee to an '89 TW35 with FWA. Nothing under 7000 hours any more. My 4600 (my Grandpa bought it new in '80) is torn down to be rebuilt right now due to a cavitation hole in a cylinder wall. Has 8649 hours on it, and the rod bearings and ring end gaps are still within spec. Mains were just .0015" beyond spec. TW35 (bought used)was rebuilt last year, Jubilee has been rebuilt twice, 7000 (Grandpa bought it new in '75) has 4500+ hours on a rebuild, over 13,000 total hours. 7600 (bought used) has 7500+ hours, never had the engine opened. (original owner went to the same dealer we did) I'd say they are as good or better than any comparable age/size tractor.
