Does anyone know when the transition was made from the plastic cam gear that was on the earlier John Deere 345's? I'm thinking I read somewhere that it was actually sometime during the production run of the 345's, but I cannot find the model year that incorporated the change. Also, am I correct in assuming the GX345 would not have the plastic gear? So, you knowledgeable JD guys, I appreciate your input. I've been looking at a 1998 345 but I'm sorta shying away from it because of this issue.
Thanks, John S
