I am not the biggest fan on my 15. Don't get me wrong she will roll with 3.36's in the rear. But starting heavy in soft dirt you gotta be care. I have a 18918b at the house that's going in at clutch time. Has a lot lower low hole that deep in my 15. Better big hole too. Not that we really need one of them

We have three trucks and each has a different transmission, a 15 spd, 13 spd, and 18 spd. I like the 13 and 18 over the 15. The one truck with the 15 spd has 3:73 rears and even though you can use the deep reduction gears to get out of soft fields, it still grunts and struggles more then the other two trucks with 13 or 18 speeds and 3:55 rears. Like was said above its basically a 10 speed.
Another reason I don't care for the 15 speed is we haul heavy with it and can't get the momentum up cause you cant split gears like the 13 or 18.
Hope this helps.johndeere4020, Logan76, Crusader66 and 13 others Thank this. -

@snowman_w900 I loved the legacy seat in my truck! The arm rests are a plus and built well. Keep in mind I am not a big person so I felt the seat fit me well. It was a big improvement over the factory seat. I didn't get a lot of miles on this morning but I know for one thing my back didn't hurt when I got home. So far so good.

I run 3:55's and had the same issues as you before I turned it up. 88k on the tandem in the fall and hit a soft spot on a hill you were pretty much dead in the water. I turned it up right before I bought my first triple. Now it hardly works the motor.
Lately I've been hauling 24 ton in my triple...put 22000 in the front and dump the rest in the back. It doesn't feel much different than running empty. And it pays better than the loads I was hauling 32 ton at 96k was.johndeere4020, Logan76, Crusader66 and 6 others Thank this. -

Good to hear bud. The arm rests are really nice and comfortable in my opinion. I'm not a big guy either, so I know what you mean there.
Just think of all those loads of grain you'll have to break those suckers in here soon @SAR loljohndeere4020, Logan76, Crusader66 and 8 others Thank this. -
Guess I know what I'm doing over the next week.
