Looking for info on the quality and durability of Leinbach equipment. The price seems right, but I'm not familiar with the line.

I had a Leinbach 5' rear blade. Worked fine for me, seemed to be very well made. I sold it because it did not fit with a quick hitch.

I bought one of their Post Hole Diggers from Marshall Machinery over in Honesdale, Pa. a few years back. Seems well made and strong. I've no complaints but then again, I have nothing else to compare it to. It's dug many holes without a problem (except operator error) and you can use the boom as a lift too. No matter whose brand you buy, have a 36" pipe wrench on hand to back it out when it gets stuck. Best advice is to go slow & steady.

Due to the fact that I share equipment between 40 HP/ 47 hp/ and 60 hp tractors, I try to get implements that fit equally well, yet will hold up to the 60 hp/7800 lb bigger tractor. I've owned and trashed a few KK implements over the years. (rear blade, mower, disc) I still own a 72" KK tiller. The tiller is in line with Leinbach equipment. Beyond that, I'd say Leinbach is even a step or two above KK in stregnth and reliability for the most part.

I have a 72" pulverizer and a post hole digger from Leinbach. Had a disc for a couple years. Good stuff for the dollar.

They have several lines for phd, I have the heavier one, bot both are good. They are heavier than KK by quite a margin if you look at them.

I have a friend that has had both a speeco and a KK both worn out and gone during the time that I have had my Linebach, and we do approximatley the same amount of work.

He now has a Linebach and he is very satisfied as well.

Just my 0.02.

Timely post! I was just looking at one of their disc harrows. My New Holland dealer caries them. This guy does not sale equipment that he considers junk. So with that said, it should serve you well. However, I did not buy a leinback. Dealer also sales Tufline. He just happened to have a hardly used Tufline harrow sitting on his lot. He said the quality was better, so I went with it, despite a little rust that I'll be removing somethime this week.

Thanks all...sounds like the way too go. I was a bit afraid to put out the $ without any idea of quality.
