currently 2008 JD X540. Looking at a JD 2305.
Bought a used. 2007, JD 2520 with 84 hours on the clock, back in early
September. Put a Curtis hard side cab, heat, work lights, radio, beacon
light in the cab. Put everything in myself with no help, except, I did have
the dealer put in the heat.
Just thought I would share a few pics.

Did you add the plow as well, or buy the tractor with it? It looks like the one that comes on a 790/3005. A lot beefier looking (in pics) than the 54" that is listed in the accessories for a 2520. Also looks wider... is it a 5'?

The push blade was an "option to buy". Basically, the guy said that he
had it and would bring it along when he delivered the tractor. If I liked
it, I could buy it. Obviously, I liked it. You're right, a lot beefier than
the 54" that is being offiered today by JD. It is 5'6", so 66".

That is a nice blade. I sold my 380 blade to a 2520 owner who cut it up and adapted it to his tractor. Looks like your seller did something similar. Certainly better than what the factory offers for the 2520. Hard to understand why Deere won't offer these instead of the same 54 inch yellow blade I had on my JD 430 garden tractor.

Amen Brother! JD is missing the boat on these...I have a #380 blade on my 4110-it's awesome!

Now that you have the cab............ you really need a front blower. ;)

Got one.
Just didn't have it on for the pictures.
Also have a FEL, 5' rear blade, ballast box, I-match, front dethatcher,
MMM for the 2520 and a JD2305.
That covers most of it anyway.
