Dana supplies the Spicer 755 suspended steer axle for the Valtra Versu T254 Smart Touch tractor, which earned the coveted "Tractor of the Year" award as well as the "Best Design" distinction.

"Buyers of tractors and other agriculture equipment are seeking a blend of performance, controllability, power for work functions, fuel efficiency, and durability that maximize yields and reduce the total cost of ownership," said
