My 850D was in the shop for 3 weeks and just got it back today. The main problem was the steering rack seized and that broke the steering column shaft. Since I only had it a few weeks I asked them to check out the entire Gator while in the shop since I bought it used. It has 700 hours now. Well, the bill was just shy of $3K and now it won't even go up my driveway hill. The manager of the JD dealer said it was always that way and it would cost another $3K to fix it. BS!!! They replaced the rack, steering column, main clutch, belt, transaxel seals, drive shaft, and 35 other small parts. To fix the "new" problem will take replacement of the front wheel drive clutch assembly which he says is another $3K. I made a BIG mistake buying JD.
