From 1020 to 4520, waiting since April.

Here's the first pic.
The other day at the dealer -- install of diverter valve.
Lots of tubing man!

I just posted pics of my new 2520, which arrived today, and it took just over 6 weeks from the ordered date. Waiting since April must have been agony.

That will be a nice step up from a 1020 to a new 4520, last year I went from the 820 to a 4520.:)

About the diverter valve, I have one on my 110 with triple front and rear circuits and also have a skidplate to protect these hydraulic lines. When it is all hooked up it would be a good idea to see how much of this stuff is vulnerable to damage from the underside of the tractor.

Yep... that's a pretty vulnerable bunch of hardware!

Steve - did you have any luck finding a protective skid-plate for the 4000 series of tractors similar to the one that is available for the JD 110 TLB?

AKfish,
I haven't looked for one since I use the tractor in areas that don't need it. I suspect a 110 skidplate would work if you made the hangars for it.

Thanks for the pic of the diverter block.

Armor plate use to be available for the 4x00 series, and would think for the 4x20 series too. But not positive about that.
A stick in the woods can cause some havoc, but then a stick can find its way past the armor plate too. And there is Murphy's Law that if it's possible, it will happen.

I cringe a bit when I see the wires that go to connectors that are so exposed. Don't know how to do it any other way, but maybe better than being buried inside of tubing. :confused3:

Great looiking setup you got!

Makes me wonder if Deere would sell more 110's if painted green and had the 4520 engine.

Wow! Beautiful machine.:thumbsup: I with I could have one but I think the city would get after me for being an annoyance and I would have to leave it parked out on the street. Around here this may result in graffiti and broken windows. Not pretty on such a machine.
Still, I like to dream of driving one.:drool:
