JD 3720 cab noise

[DP Property]

ok but has your cab had the noises on bumbs ever since you have owned it or did it start at a later date? I only have 22 hours on mine now and will try today and find out where the cab bolts are and what they should be torqued to.

Nice new tractor congratulations.:thumbsup:

Have to agree with Henri about the 2900 rpms' is way too fast, I do that sort of work at 1500 to 1800 rpms.

FWIW, it looks like you were spreading 3/4" gravel, I have found that it is best to use base course with 3/4" to fines and pack that in first. Then put a layer of clean 3/4" gravel on top about one rock high. This way you don't have all the tracks in your driveway. Too much clean gravel on top and the vehicles are constantly plowing through the gravel.

ok thanks not used to the new machine yet thought for the loader work should be higher but I guess the load match takes care of that a really nice feature.

Been that way since I bought it with 100 hrs on it. Just like yours it squeaks when things get bumpy.

My 4520 has had squeaks from the steering wheel from day 1. I can take the assembly apart, lube it, and it's good for 10 hours or so and the squeaking starts again. I've tried JD SuperLube, white litium, and dry silicone.

Agree with Kenny on using the dry silicon on the door seals, I hit mine about twice a year.
