JD 4520 higher horse power

[trook]

I realize that the current model JD 4520 and 4720 have more horse power than previous years. Can anyone tell me what year this change occurred? I am looking at a 2007 4520 and am wondering if it has 53 engine hp or 60 engine hp.

Thanks, guys.

Tractor Date says 53 and they were up dated in 2009 with more hp.

what about hp at the pto?

Owner's manual for 2007 4520 says 53.1 gross hp; PTO = 45.5 hp; total flow of main hydro pump = 12 gpm (not including power steering of 5.1 gpm).

Yep... the ads for used tractors are full of that kind of mis-information. All kinds of 2004 and later with the higher hp engines -- just ask em!
