lets see if excavator's w/hydro drive dozers an the like can chime in then you will see how long hydros will last when they are really work. just a thought.

Early problems verified? Mean like the 2 posts inthe NH forum.. that were HST problem related.. ended up being a fluid / filter / pump cavitation issue as i remember... ( IE UNDUE whining HST fixed with correct fluid/filter.. and some sealing.. etc.. )

Just over 970 in a little over 5 years. No problems whatsoever. Stories of hydro's failing early in life should be factually verified or else consigned to the "old wives tale" category.

My own tractor has nearly 800 hours of trouble free HST usage. We have a couple of machines at work with over 5000 hours of HST time. I don't know for sure that it is all trouble free on those, but the machines are still running just great.
