I have had this tedder for 4 years. It has been excellent. Only had to replace used aircraft tires they used on transport. One thing I learned is when you go to fold it up make sure it is straight behind tractor and on as flat ground as possible. If on a side hill the transport wheels will turn and not lock in groove. It has been a real time saver.

Polyurethane bushings were destroyed and no way to lubricate i am presently replacing the bushings with bronze and adding a zerk..... It has set half the season......
