our 4020 is still earning its keep, paying the bills. But If I had the bucks, I would do the same for our 4020 and let it be a show tractor, a parade queen. Its earned it several times.
i know i've said it before but i'll say it again..awesome awesome job guys that is one AMAZING tractor. i've been wanting a 4020 for YEARS ever since i could say tractor i've wanted a 4020 lol i'd be honored to have one like this one in my collection great job guys i'm very impressed.
That was probably the best all-around farm tractor ever made. It had enough power and weight to handle a heavy disc or a 5 bottom plow, but it was nimble enough to pull planters, sprayers, cultivators, grain drills.
I think they said it had 95 at the PTO, but it was the pullingest 95 I ever saw!
John Deere really had their stuff together when they made that tractor. I am a two-cylinder John Deere man but if I ever had the chance to buy a Deere that wasnt a two-cylinder it would be a 4020 no doubt.
When Scott started taking it apart every part that moved was either worn out or almost worn out. He said it is no good to me laying all over the floor like this. As long as it is apart do you want us to pound out the dents and paint it. As you can see by the video it is almost all brand new. Too nice to use now just shows I believe.
such big love for the old tractors... it gives me a wonderful feeling.. when i see a tractor.. from wrecked to brandnew.. its amazing (Y) respect for all rebuilders.. it cost lot of time.. patience and money... but it is worth it...
my dad had a farmal 806,,,,and my neighbor had a 4020....they were both great tractors...really different...but if i had to buy one..i would probably have went the deer
Looks like a 1972, I have a 68 model, but the 72 model had larger oil pan and side controls, prelude to the 4320 about the same tractor with out the cab
If I stumbled across some Tack's Toys videos, I'll probably shit my self, LOL. It'll be awesome 'cause I work with DC SuperShine. We polish Tackaberry's trucks. George has got one of the biggest and nicest collections of antique tractors and trucks in North America.
Yes we had trouble with the 7th gear on the powershift and 5th it would shift smoth untill yougot to 5th and it would drop to an idle and sit for about 5 seconds and then take of and 7th would do the same only slam when it shifted. I just got back from Fall harvest is south dakota and we filled a lot of 50000 bushel bins with 90 ft 18 in augers and the best tractor we had on PTO was a 4020 the 2nd best was a 6030
We usta run 4 4020s at the Dairy now we just got 1 we had some clutch trouble in the 1 we got it was just a bolt shearen of but we could split it replace the bolt and put it together in bout 30 min we also had a powershift never worked right
we ran two 4020's on a 3000 acre farm up until the day we quit farming, one tricycle gear running propane with custom built fender tanks for spraying, and one diesel with a push blade mounted it was one of the workhorses. worked daily pulling disk etc. the reverse had failed in it and dad was to cheap to buy batteries, so i know for at least ten years we made sure we always parked it on a hill and never got into a place that required you to back up. Hooking up euip was a trip to say the least.
Good jod .. it looks great.. we have a 1972 collection from a 2520 to a 4620 and we have just finished fully restoring one of our 4320's and it looks great.. keep up the great work
..loved my 4020D..let it sit all winter & started right up next spring! Could pull a 4-16" plow thru just about any soil condition like it was pullin' a toy.. would rate it the best 6 cyl tractor JD ever made..
looks nearly perfect
