    Rear Blade  Using rear blade w/ gauge wheel

    For the guys that have back blades w/ a gauge wheel, do you leave the top link of the 3pt attached or let the blade float without it? Thanks, JP

    Anyone have front fenders on 4x20 series?

    Any of you guys have the front fenders on a 4x20 series tractor? I've been looking at getting them for my 4520, since for the next month my hill will be a mudpit. I'm curious if they hit the loader hoses where they all connect down at the frame. When my I turn all the way to the right, mine...

    10' rotary pull mower behind a JD 4520?

    Fairly new to the forum, but I see a lot of you guys do quite a bit of mowing. Those that have 8'-10' mowers, how much hp does your tractor have pulling it? I have 13 acres of grass and alfalfa to mow, and I'm thinking of going with a 10' rotary pull type behind my '07 JD 4520, 45 PTO HP...

    10hr 400cx service question

    So did my 10 hour service on my loader. Retorqued all the pins and mounting bolts. Now here's the question, do all the pins have to be flush w/ the casting (grease zerk end) to get the proper torque? Some of mine stick out a little bit (about 1/8 of an inch). And what keeps them tight, being off...

    400cx loader seems loose

    Have a little over 20 hours on my 4520, and now my 400cx FEL seems like a very loose fit. Going over bumps and what not, the whole thing seems to move around side to side. When I get off and try to push it around by hand, it seems nice and solid. But hit a bump or hole, and it makes all kinds...

    4520 Questions

    Received my new 4520 Friday, and after playing around I have a few questions: Seems to run a little on the warm side. Is this typical or not? Seat switch, anyone bypass that yet? If so, how did you do it? Can a guy just jump the terminals w/ some wire or is it a major project? Will this...

    Buying a JD 4520

    Anyone own a JD 4520 by chance? If so, what do you like/dislike about it. Been looking for a new tractor for awhile and just ordered a 4520. After looking at the Case DX55/ NH TC55, I preferred some of the JD features a little better. Probably a little late since I ordered the tractor already...
