I use my tractor mostly for snow removal... So I got to thinking, my 3720 Cab is now over 7 years old. It's held up great, my first real problem was the front drive shaft, which was a simple fix. So my question is, in a year or two, if I get a new tractor, is there anything like a Ziebart...

I have a question about my front drive shaft. I lost a roll pin that goes into the coupler that slips over the spline that powers the MFWD. So my question is, is there a hole on the spline that this roll/spring goes through? Or is the hole located on the actual driveshaft itself? Or is the...

I never take off my loader, I have no reason to. All of my bolts were tight, and the mast adjustment was tight. So I was digging into a pile of gravel, and the load I was biting into was a little to the right side of the bucket......... Then BAMMMMM!!!!! My Right foot window popped and...

On my 3720 Cab, My brakes keep getting stuck on me.... I noticed there is no grease fitting on the lever that the Cable is actually pulling... just a spring.... It will really bog the tractor down, at full throttle, the best speed I can do is 4 mph, when they get stuck.... I keep having to...

On my tractor, as of just recently my steering wheel has a lot of grinding shimmy to it... this is happening when I'm driving the tractor straight, and let go of the wheel, the wheel will wiggle back and forth, about an inch, like a vibration... I've checked the fluid in front axle: looks...

This is strange, I only have about 1" of workable motion, on my 3 point hitch lever.... (The lever will move all the way back and forth) But what I mean is, I can't go any higher than the number 4, and the relief valve kicks in, (implement makes it way all the way up) But I can't go any...

My A/C doesn't seem to be cranking out the cold air like it should. I checked to "Feel" any wind leaks in the roof seal.. Filters and Screens are clean as could be. A/C definitely kicks in when you throw the switch, because you can see the Tachometer do a little drop in engine speed. So do...

Well, I finally got my machine back from the dealership service dept.. (Slow as molasses) I'm not happy with my dealership at all, they've had my tractor for a about 5 weeks before the snow fell this year, then ran out of time, and had to send it back to me because I needed it so badly, (only...

I understand the 375 Backhoe is the one that fits the 3000 series cab tractors. But my question is why? If the open station can handle the 485, why can't the cab handle the 485? Will it still fit the same unit, but just not recommended? What exactly is it that is limiting the Cab tractor to...

Is it possible if as many of you guys can, can post a picture of the bracket that holds the 2 couplers on for the 3rd function hydraulics... I've had trouble with my loader hoses since day one.. and of course I kept trying to tell my dealer that he is wrong on how they are mounted. Because I...

Ok, what is the exact sequence of making your Rear Pto work (for woodchipper) without you being on the machine... I know I've made this work numerous times in the past (about a year ago)... I've told the dealer I had problem making it work by itself.... Then they told me a few weeks later...

I was wondering if some people here can show me some picture of their (specific-ly) of there 3000 series CAB Tractor with the Optional 3rd funtion hydraulic couplers... Reason I want to know, is because I'm still convinced my service manager doesn't know how the plate holding the couplers is...

I've had my machine up to my JD dealership for about a week now... I wanted them to service it before a long winter of removing snow.... but I also wanted to fix a bunch of little bugs with my tractor before it is totally off warranty next month... I had them change oils/Grease... blah blah...

One thing that never made sense to me with the John Deere Light Switch Dial is... if you are using your "Work" lights.. you can't use your Warning/Flashers at the same time? Why is this? If you are using your work lights, more likely you are working the machine... and flashers should be used...

On my 3720 Cab... the Black Paint is chipping and flaking away... near my rear axles, and near my 3pt Hitch Arms... My Black paint on my Rear Wheels... The Black Hub in the center of the tires flaked off quite a while ago.... anybody else? I'll post pictures of it later.
