It makes for a great farm machine, i wouldn't recommend it for commercial work even if its beein re-built, it just doesn't have the power and speed of newer machines. After i got my hands on a 753 i didn't want to let it go! but the price was rite so i did. The extra HP and larger pumps and drive motors make them better. The trade off is the electronics, when they go you can be up for big $$. I just bought new coils and stems for the aux hydraulics on a 753, my local dealer wanted about 300 AUD per side, so $600 round figures. The 743 uses a lever for the aux control, it doesn't go bad! little things like that.</p></blockquote><p></p>
