I had an international 674 about 20 years ago always had issues with it (band hand brake , lack of low down torque ) compared to the massey 165 . The 674 had a nicer gear box change on the side , than the massey 8 speed and was faster on the road . Yes the 5000 series JD are made in India , looks like good quality control though , thanks for the low down on the Deutz transmission issues .
