Buying Advice JD 5105M vs. JD 6330

Also, I would pass on the SL. I have a 542 SL on my 5525 and well - I don't like it. Run the loader a little while - you will do your own SL without a problem.

The load dampener is handy for hauling hay bales across bumpy pastures. Loader Accumulator I believe is the official name.

It does have an accumulator. John Deere calls it LSS. Loader Suspension System. It's on my WISH list for the 6415

I love the LSS on my 5085M with the on/off switch in the cab.

I had a 6405 loaner for a while when I was waiting on my M. It was a brute of a machine for sure. A lot more than I need. I was able to move a lot of dirt with it in short order though! :)

Well I now see it is an old post. I have a 5105M and neighbor has a 6420, which is same family as 6330. Which did you pick?

5105M and 6330 has same basic engine block, different turbo set up. 5105M a smaller frame and has geared transmission. Advantages of 6330 added weight, and the power quad fully syn transmission. 6330 is quiter and a little more sure footed. For field work I would go with 6330. For alot of field work really need a 7 seriers at least. 6 cyn has more tourque on up hills and heavy hay.

The OP hasn't been on her since last Dec. so I doubt you'll get an answer unless he gets email notifications on this thread but I'm sure others can answer your questions.

Mine has a valve on the back. No fancy switch for my rig.
