Hi Guys, Yesterday after bush-hogging my pasture I noticed some hydraulic fluid dripping off the bottom of my front differential. Upon further investigation I found that the pivot/holder housing had cracked all the way around, causing it to leak fluid. This housing mounts to the front of the...

Hi, I have a 5740 with 400 hours that the 4 wheel drive has quit working. No noises, it just doesn't work. I drove down into the woods to clear some trees I had cut down and got stuck trying to go uphill in some pine straw, only the rear wheels were pulling. After I managed to back up using the...

FYI....All Cab Tractors I was bushogging yesterday with the A/C blowing nice and cool when all of a sudden, my lap was covered in about 12 oz of water. I finally remembered where the drain lines for the A/C were located.(underneath the rear fenders above the tires.) Sure enough, all three...

Hi guys, I need a little help here. I'm in the middle of changing the fluids in the 5740C that I have. We all know how easy the manual is at explaining things so here is my question.

Hi All, I am thinking of installing grapple on my 5740c. I have talked to John at Millonzia and now have some questions maybe someone could help me with. I have a quick detach bucket on my 5740, is this the same as a universal mount?? I know that I could just run lines from my remote hyd's...

Hi All, I used this site to make up my mind on which Montana to buy. I got a 5740C, picked it up on Monday and now have 5 hrs on it. All I can say is, so far I am impressed. This is some kind of a machine. I am able to do most everything at 1500 rpm or less. This is the first tractor I have...
