I've had a 6x4 Diesel Gator for over 2 years now. I've changed the trans fluid twice in 300 hrs of operation. The brakes had become increasingly noisey; chattering and squealing when coming to a stop. /forums/images/graemlins/frown.gif I talked to the shop foreman at the JD dealership I use about the noise. He had the exact fix for the problem- a bottle of John Deere Friction Modifier. Just add the entire bottle of fluid to the transmission and drive. The brake noise subsided almost immediately. Almost no noise now. I highly recommend this fix if you're having brake noise on your Gator. /forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif
