Alpine tractor demise?

[david lawrence]

My McCormick reverse drive tractor has losts its drive

fault traced to hydrostatic unit

the parts are available with possible large bill

to fix depending what is found once unit opened up. Between 3,000 and 5,000?£

Sell it for parts and buy another

get it fixed

my budget would be £7-8000

what to do for the best 

any inside information?????

Have you seen if Whitehouse would rebuild it?

 

Generally I always repaired stuff as I was happier with the devil I knew rather than having to spend time looking for used machines again.

This has been my view for many years... I do have to question my sanity at times but it does generally work out
