I have a 790 with mfwd. I've shelled out the gears in the front axle twice. First time was warranty this time it's on me. JD dealer service manager told me the first time they have seen this problem before and feel it's due to the weight of the fel and contents. I use about 600 pounds ballast in the rear but I either need more or that isn't the problem. Both times it's happened while backing up in 4 wheel drive with a load of sand in the bucket. Anybody else had this problem? If so, any solution?
