I ordered a JD 5085M last month and hopefully it will be here by the end of April. Couple questions for you 5085M owners. What do you like most about the tractor and what are your biggest dislikes? Did you load the front tires? I read in the owner's manual you can shift from B to C and...

I am going to sell my cab 4720 tractor and order me either a 5075M or 5085M. I have about 60 acres of land that I want to do some small scale row crop farming. Beside a hp and price difference, is there anything else that stands out between these 2 tractors?

Just bought a rollover plow, but the 3 pt lift sets too high for my 4720 to pick it up. Does anyone make an extender. I need about 5 or 6" to get the plow off the ground. Is there an adjustment on the JD4720 that will increase the lift height? I really like this plow, but it looks like I may...

I purchased my 4720 back in 2006 with 58 hp, 50 at the PTO. Did JD change the engine or is there an engine setting somewhere they changed. Can I take mine back to the dealer and let them turn it up? I want those extra horses too.

I just purchased this older 8ft rotary cutter and I was wondering if anyone recognized the brand? It looks like an older Rhino or Servis. It cuts extremely well. Just finished bushhogging about 4 acres of 4-5ft brush. One of the gearboxes is leaking slightly, but overall I am pleased with...

How hard is it to ply and keep things level with the top-n-tilt? I searched but didn't see any thing on plowing with the top-n-tilt installed. I have the factory JD setup on a 4720 with an old 2 bottom plow and haven't had good success plowing. At times, it wants do dig in too deep and I have...

Been looking around the internet for information on a Bush Hog 160 cutter, but can't find too much. I found an old one that needs some work but appears to be in decent shape. The center gearbox needs a couple of seals and the spline shaft under the bottom had a broken key that me and a welder...

I have been doing a lot of research on the CAT 257B. I hope to demo one in the next week or so. Basically, I need a loader that can handle full pallets of sod or pavers(sometimes moving them off of a semi-trailer) and do finish grading work (harley rake and 4in1 bucket with toothbar). Can a...

I ran my cab 4720 tractor a good while Saturday and the AC never got cold. I know on some of the full size tractors you have to turn the AC down because it is too cold. I just want to check and make sure there is nothing wrong with mine before I take it back to the dealer. The AC is blowing...

Dealer delivered the cab 4720 today. It was well worth the wait. The cab is awesome, just like everyone here has said. Looks too good to get dirty, but oh well. I got it with a top-n-tilt kit (a must have), telescoping links, 3rd valve, 400CX loader with additional outlets for future...

Yep, I went ahead with the non-cab version of the 4720. I have a lot of work and couldn't justify waiting or renting another tractor. The 4720 is nice, definitely more stable with plenty of power. I got the 400x loader with a 73" bucket, a set of pallet forks, automotive cruise control...

I really want a CAB version of this tractor, especially after doing some grading work this weekend. I was filthy went I got off the tractor. No rain in about a month here in middle GA. I was envious of the guy down the road on his CAB Kubota. The dealer is saying it may be earlier spring...

I have heard that a CUT tractor will not lift a pallet of sod. Can the 4720 with the 400x loader handle a pallet of sod, typically around 2200 - 2500 lbs? The salesman at the local dealer here said it could, but I just wanted to check before I pulled the trigger. I need something to move...

What is the widest rollover box that a JD4310 can pull? I need something heavy that will break up hard clay, but I would like to pull this at least 6" deep. I can get a used 60", but would like the 72", even though I don't know if I can handle it cutting that deep.

Dealer just installed the T-n-T and 5th SCV valve on my JD4310 tractor. I noticed that the joystick now controls the loader totally opposite from the way it used to. I know I can swap the hydraulic lines to correct this, but what is the correct joystick operation for the loader. If you push...

According to the manual, my JD4310 should be able to lift at least 2200 lbs with the 3pt hitch. I had a 3 pt sod installer built that handles 42 inch rolls. My brother hauls sod and we tested a 103ft roll. The JD4310 would not bulge it. We are going to ask the farm to cut the rolls back to...
