Thanks for the mention @tepapa
We had a 2008 T5060, done about 800 hours in its first few years then about 1000 a year there after. Was a great tractor, lightweight, simple, powerful, best gripping tractor that size. Had the 24x24 with power shuttle.
Like any T5000 I have drove the 4wd stayed on after you braked, which led to the 4wd carrier bearing and dog clutches to go at around 3200 hours, but we also fitted new front tyres at that time so the ratio may have been upset. Had around 2500 hours we had to change a leaking brake pipe.
Was a really torquey tractor, would pull and pull at 1300rpm, but she did like a drink. Brakes on her were like new the day she lift and it was 80% roadwork she done. Electrics is the biggest issue with them, many the rear light cluster rusting up.
The T5060 genuinely is the only tractor that we have sold that I miss, would buy her back if I could. These pictures are of the day she left
