Have a chance to buy this tractor with 7500 hours. Is this a good year/model for the 963 units? What should I expect to replace/overhaul with these hours, other than under carriage? Is this a tough/reliable motor. Thanks men, just trying to do my homework before purchase.

It's not a bad engine but I like the 3304 better, due to easier repair with tools you have. I like the HPCU models better than the C models. They have the Hyd and drive oils separate so easier clean out after failure. On the C models any drive or hyd failure with contamination requires the whole system to be torn down on the 953 & 963, the 973 has separate systems. These are my opinions.
