Default Re: 2520 clearance 3 point

Hiya,

Just penned an email to my dealer. I'm calling him when I get out of work. Last week I asked him for a quote on about $3500 worth of implements and equipment, I'll remind him of that when I talk to him.

Text of letter:
===================================
Salesmans name,
According to the Deere parts page, they have released the replacement arms to solve the tire clearance issue on the 2520. Please see if they are available and how long to get them. I have included a pdf of the parts page.

I'm going to state my position up front, I feel that these should be either covered under warrantee as a defective part or as a product recall replacement. I have set my tires to the recommended wide position and used an I-match and still have clearance issues. To me, the product was delivered from the factory with limited functionality because of the defective design of the lower 3pt arms which the factory has subsequently redesigned and released a replacement part to alleviate the defect.

Please see what you can do to make this happen. I'll be quite honest with you; how JD handles this will directly impact my future purchase decisions regarding JD products.
=========================
