Not many electrics on them with the exception of a power shuttle, splitter gear, and I think the later ones had a button on the gear stick to engage the clutch. The 5440 will be much more modern than a JXU, you probably have the Dyna 4 transmission and a 3 cylinder engine. We looked at a 5440 last jan, but the cost of trading up was just too much for us. Is there much of a price difference between the two?
