Hoping someones come across this before....
Our 5455 has never had the most inspiring brakes since it was bought new back in 2006, and compared to our JD 6420s they are weak. On the JD the trailer seems to brake before the tractor. We have bled the pistons on the top of the trumpets and the valve by the side of the big oil pick up and discovered after the dyna 4 unit was replaced by MF dealer they hadn't been bled - now much better and like what they were, but I am still not confident compared to the JD. Someone did mention that our JD had the brake bias towards the trailer, is it possible to adjust the Masseys in this way? I just hate weak brakes with a 14 ton trailer behind me especially with idiots in cars.
