My 1086 has had several through it's 15000 hour life and I've done, or not done, everything I have heard of to try to make it last longer. Oil changes yearly, not pulling it back to use it as a brake, not pulling it for very long in under drive, and on and on.

With my luck it'll go out a few months out of warranty. The mechanics that do the replacements are very competent, experienced lifetime IH mechanics.
Now that it's a loader tractor I just leave the TA in direct drive. Jim
