I have the chance to buy a 180 diesel, the guy bought it as a repo from a bank. After he got it home, he noticed it was jumping out of a gear, (don't know which one) and he is replacing whatever gears are worn in the trans. He said he would probably want 5500 to 6000 depending on cost of repairs. Is this an average price, and what do I need to watch out for? Will just be pulling a haybine and square baler with it.

That price does sound like top dollar, if you pay that make sure he gives you a WRITTEN warranty concerning the transmission.

5th and 6th is weak on the 180. The farmer I work for has one and has to jam a block of wood under the shifter so it can't come out. most 180's have problems with 5 and 6th. The 180 is a pretty decent tractor my boss has a diesel which is a very quiet runner. Check and make sure the parking brake teeth arent badly worn because the one my boss has likes to suddenly release on it's own when the tractor is parked in a hill which is deadly dangerous, so you can't trust the parking brake. I always drive to a level spot if I need to get off the tractor to do something, I'm not saying the parking brake is useless because I still use it everytime I get off the tractor, but it should not be trusted in a hill because it could cost you your life. I'd say $5,500 to $6,000 would kinda be top dollar, but if it was in good shape and the transmission was ok, and had good tires I suppose it wouldn't be too much.

Best to get one with independant pto (has hydralic clutch to engage) some only had pto that ran when power director was in neutral (like d-17). Make sure the transmission is really fixed. I spent $1200 on one in 1974 and in 30 days it was jumping out again. It was high gear that failed.

I paid $6000 cash for mine new in 1970 (it didn't have IPTO).
