I just bought a 2018 4066R and I LOVE this tractor. I'm looking for ideas, suggestions on a finish mower, before I decide on one. So far, I'm looking at a Frontier Gm1190R 90" rear mount rear discharge mower. I like that width for my area. I'm just curious if there are other, or different...

I just bought a new JD X734 and I removed my mow deck and put the front quick hitch on it with my broom for sweeping snow and the left to right action on the hydraulic function has a 5 second delay in it. I'm assuming it needs a diverter valve turned somewhere, but I have no clue where said...

Has anyone made the JD front fender kit fit on a X734 AWS? I see JD says it only fits the 2 wheel steer models. I'm wondering how or what might be needed to make them fit as I HATE seeing the salty water spray up on my $15,000 machine when I sweep snow and snow blow at my business. I have...

I picked up a nice used JD 2720 and when I installed my FEL, one of the hydraulic quick couplers leaks a fair amount of fluid and its annoying. Is there any way to adjust these, or whats the best way to stop this annoying leak? It leaks onto my 62D and then the grass sticks to all the oil and...

The fuel line is rotten on my John Deere X475. Its about a model year 2000-2002 and its just front steer. How hard is it to replace the entire fuel line? It almost looks like the whole rear fenders and such need to come off, is this true? I'm sure the fuel line is rotten from some...

I have a 2008 JD 2720 that I recently bought with 150 hours on it. When I start it cold, there is a red light just above the fuel gauge that comes on for about 5 seconds just after it starts. It appears to have like a pair of circles in it, that makes me "guess" it might be for the glow plugs...

So I bought a 2720 and it came with a nice 62D MMM and it had a independent lift kit installed on it. The lift works well, but I just don't understand that stupid knob on the fender and that cheesy cable dangling and rubbing my left rear tire. I can turn my adjustment knob a few turns in...

I ordered the loader frame mount brackets for my 2720 today and then I looked at my 2720 and wondered if I need to buy "longer" bolts when I install the FEL brackets to the frame? I know the bolts get removed and the brackets go on, but I'm not sure if the factory bolts are long enough...

I have a 2520 and a 2720 and they seem to have different front brackets that bolt onto the tractor frame to mount the 62D MMM. I'm assuming the brackets are different because one tractor has a FEL and grill guard installed and one tractor does not have a FEL or grill guard. I'm wondering if...

What is this "green bracket" for? Its attached to the top link pin. I bought this 2720 used and I'm not sure what this bracket is for. It only has a 62D with independent lift under it. I'm assuming the bracket was for some other implement that was sold separately because the previous owner...

Can anyone verify what the correct Idle speed is for a John Deere 2720? I just bought a 2008 2720 and it idles at like 1,400rpm and that seems really hi compared to my 2520 that idles near 1,000 rpm. Thanks in advance!

I'm wondering what year JD 2720's have emissions equipment and what tiers and years it came into place. I have a 2520 that I am looking to trade for a 2720 to get the few more ponies, as my 2520 has nearly enuf power, but it grunts hard with the big mower and tillers. I'm not looking for...

I know there are numerous different styles and manufacturers of these Gator blades with different lifts, teeth, etc. What ones have the most lift and mow the best on a 62D? The heavy Oregon ones? Just want to be sure I order the right ones! I'll be mowing taller turf grass, weeds, etc...

I recently bought a used 62D MMM for my JD 2520 and would like to know where to look for installation manual, any suggestions?

I'm looking to put a MMM on my JD 2520 and I'm wondering what all of you prefer, the independent lift or use the standard mechanical lift? I know the 72" only has mechanical lift and 62D can use the independent lift. I pretty much understand how they both work, but I'm curious what you guys...

I'm looking for a nice 72" MMM for my JD 2520. If you have one or know of one, please contact me. Thank you!:drink:

I'm looking to find a nice 72 inch MMM for my JD 2520. Can I put a 7 IRON 72 inch MMM under it? Or can I only run the lighter version of the 72 inch MMM? I found a nice 7 IRON MMM and would buy it if fits my 2520, but if it won't fit I will look for a lighter 72. If indeed I do need the...

My 2520 has a real sloppy feel to its FEL Handle. Its not a huge deal, but its annoying when you try and do precision work with it because you need to move it past all the "slop" before it starts activating the next control. The handle on mine slops mostly side to side in the curling...

I'm looking at a JD X744 or a x495, and I'm wondering what changes were made to the Yanman for EPA emissions reasons over the years? Basically, what year is the best to buy? I read that the 03-04 used the 1.0L Yanmar, the 05-10 used the 1.1L Yanmar and the 2011+ used the .9L Yanmar. I know...

John Deere All Wheel Steering reliability? I'm looking for a JD X495, and I'm torn between the All Wheel Steering model and the traditional front steering model. Is the AWS reliable? I'm sure some of you must have a lot of hours on them by now! :) Is it durable for some reasonable...

Hey, I'm looking at putting a 72 inch MMM on my John Deere 2520! I'm hoping the 2520 has plenty of power to turn the 72 inch deck, but I'm wondering if it will cut damp/wet grass with ease, or does the engine bog down if you go kinda fast? My dealer thinks the 72 is too much for the 2520. I...

I have an John Deere X475 with a front quick hitch, rotary broom, 47 inch snowblower, rear weight bracket and 54C mow deck. Will these attachments fit the new 700 series garden tractors? Its no big deal if I need a different driveshaft or something small to make it work, but I'm hoping they...

Do any of you finish mow with a 2520? I'm trying to decide if I should buy a X495 to mow with, or if I should try buying a belly mower for my 2520? I'm afraid my 2520 will tear my lawn to pieces, but I'd like your opinions. I have R4 tires that I grooved to make them more aggressive, no fluid...

I'm looking at a Rear tiller for my 2520. I'm looking around 5 foot wide. I'm wondering if I should even bother looking at the Frontier models, or just get the JD 655 Tiller? I would think the JD tiller would be much stronger, and last longer, but I'm curios if any of you have a Frontier...

I have a JD 2520, and I am looking to buy a rear tiller for it. My tractor is at my garage away from where I am now, and I can't seem to find how wide the rear tires are on a 2520? I have the rims flipped to wide position, but thats hardly any difference anyway. Anyone have that spec handy...

I'm considering putting a snow plow on my JD 2520. I'm not sure how large of a plow to put on it, but I really don't like the idea of JD's 54 inch plow, that seems ridiculously small. I have a 60 inch plow on my ATV....geesh. So, how big of a plow will it handle in Northern Wisconsin...

I have a 2520 with a 200CX loader on it. I have Pallet Forks that I have weigh 220 Lbs. I don't have the owners manuals near me, and my neighbor asked me to help him lift a Gun Vault that weighs 750 Lbs. I'm assuming it will pick it up, but I'm just not sure. I only have to raise it up about...

I have a 42C mower deck that is on my LX 279. I'm considering installing a mulch kit to make it into a Mulcher. Does the mulch kits really make them "Good Mulchers", even tho the deck was not designed to mulch? I'm just wondering, because I use it on a lawn at my business in town, so it only...

I'm wondering if anyone knows the differences between a John Deere LX5 Rotary mower and the current Frontier 5 foot rotary mower? One JD dealer says the LX series was much better built, and one dealer says the Frontier is made by the same company and is basically identical. I have a LX4, and...

Ok, I have some springs under the rear of my seat on my JD2520, but its still a bit rough. Its much better than it was, and thanks to this board I did the springs mod. Has anyone successfully installed a suspension system on their seat? I have disks screwed-up in my lower back, and I just...

I am wondering if a set of 26 12 12 rear tires and wheels from a John Deere 317 will fit onto my John Deere X475? Does anyone know for sure? They look identical.......:cool:

I have a JD 2520, and It runs great and has like 50 hrs on it now. When I start it up cold (20 degrees F) its starts EXCELLENT, but sounds loud when its cold. Then about 2-3 full minutes later it completely quiets down all at once and sounds just like its running in summer. Is this because...

Same company that owns/builds MTD law mowers! :)

I'm looking for a LX5 Rotary Cutter if anyone knows where there is a nice one. I live in Northern Wisconsin. I have a LX4 and want to move up to the 5 footer without getting into the newer cheaper built cutters. Anyone know where there is one? Thanks

I have a seat thats from a JD X 595 for sale. I had it installed on my JD 2210 for less than a year. I traded for a 2520, so I don't need this seat anymore. It made an amazing improvement in the ride quality. It rode better than my 2520 currently does. I paid ALOT of $$$$ for this seat...

I have a 08 2520, and the parking brake is driving me nuts. When I apply the brakes and Lock the parking brake, it really doesn't hold much at all. I can drive without even knowing the brake is on. :eek: Then when I finally realize the brake is left on, its **** hard to get fully...

I have a brand new 2520, and I'm wondering when I should change the oil? I know the book says 50hrs, but is that best, or should I do it early or late? Early is usually when I do it, but I was told to let it break in good before changing it.....???? When I do change it, what oils are you...

I have a John Deere LX4 Rotary cutter that for sale. Its 4 feet wide, and is in excellent condition. Its been stored inside always and has no rust. It has a slip clutch, and guards on the front, but the rear is open. I'm selling because I traded my 2210 in for a 2520 and now I want a 5 foot...

I have a John Deers LX4 Rotary cutter that I am planning on trading in on a new John Deere 5 foot rotary cutter. Supposedly john deere now sells Frontier, so it would be a 5 foot Frontier with a slip clutch, laminated wheel, and guards on the front only. What should it cost as far as trading...

I'm considering having my buddys dad build me a 5 foot wide disk for my JD 2520. I'd like it to raise and lower with the 3 point arms, so not just a pull behind one on a hitch. Any suggestions, or ideas I should pass by him before he builds it? He's into building all kinds of stuff, so it...

I have a JD 2520 and I am wondering if any of the other size JD tractor wheels would bolt up propperly to a 2520? The reason is because I'm desperately hunting for Aig tires for the rear of my 2520, and nobody makes an aig tire in that stupid size. I'm just looking for the rears right now...

I have a JD 2520 that I absolutely LOVE, but the only tire options were R4's and Turfs. I need to find a set of Aig or R1's for it, because the R4's on it do absolutely nothing in soft stuff. Its a loader tractor, so it needs traction. Anyone have any suggestions of where to look for these...

I just bought a JD 2520 with R4's and it has far less traction that my little 2210 had with Bar tires on it. These R4's are just absolutely useless, I'm hoping there is a reasonable solution to get me a set of Bar tires.....any suggestions? Rears only.

Just Curious how much Ballast weight you guys with 2520's are putting in the JD ballast box? I've got about 1,200 Lbs of Lead in mine now but I haven't been able to work it real hard yet to see if thats enough. Just wondering what you guys added, I Smelted lead and made blocks of lead that...

I just got our 2007 2520 Home and wow its kinda hard to get used to the feel of the hydro pedals. The 2210 used to give you a realy good FEEL. I'm wondering if this 2520 has those electronic hydro pedals that everyone was complaining about on here? Anyone know? Its a BEAUTIFUL tractor...

I am considering trading my 2003 2210 in on a new 2520. I'm trading the 2210 in with only the quick attach FEL and grill guard. I'm buying a 2520 with a 200CX FEL, R4 tires. The 2210 is in incredible condition, no damage to body and its glossy as brand new. Garage kept its whole life...

I am considering having my friend (welding guru) build me a 4 foot wide Disk for my John Deere 2210. I'm just wondering if the parts to make the disk are readily available, and if its feasable to try building it, or should I just go out and buy one? What are my options here? Thanks guys! :D

I'd hope so, its 3 times as big.

I'm just thanking you guys for suggesting that I look on EBAY for a planter. I bought a 1 row Flex 71 for a little over $400 shipped to my door! :D I'm wondering if there is any secrets that I needd to know about these planters? Thanks guys! :)

I'm looking for a corn planter, most likely a 1 row planter because I'll be pulling it with a JD 2210 (23 HP Diesel). Where is a good place to look at buying a planter, and are there any cheap brands to steer clear of? Also kinda looking at buying some food plot ground working implements.

I know its some sort of quick way to hook up accessories for the tractors, but could someone explain it better. Sorry, but I've just never seen one. I can't find it on JD's web site either. I guess a pic would be cool too! :D
