I just noticed you already have a BX if the tractor on your profile is up to date. I gotcha now. Yeah for a big diesel lawn tractor the JD 700 series you are looking at doesn't have many other comparisons out there.

Can’t get much simpler or heavy built. Engine parts are dirt cheap and plentiful. Wet sleeved engine as long as you don’t crack block or head can be easily overhauled and used indefinitely.

Make sure hydraulic quick connections are fully seated.
