- John Deere 4520 cab... formerly Yanmar 336D
I know the anwer is really "what someone in my area will pay for it", but I'm trying to figure out ballpark what it's worth, as I'm tempted to move to a cab tractor if funds allow it this summer. I'll definitely be looking into the new Cub Cadet / Yanmar's too
.
Anyway, here are the relavent specs:
1983 (or so) YM336D (US spec machine, in other words, not a grey) 4wd
The "negatives"
2000 or so hours
A little rust on a few dents in the hood (previous owner)
faded paint
a few seeps in some of the hydraulic lines
could use new tires
repaired air filter housing (sound, but doesn't look stock)
steering wheel is out of round (what happens when a floor beam falls on the tractor (thankfully the wheel was their...I was operating it at the time...)
The "positives"
Runs GREAT, always starts
Block heater (important in upstate NY in the winter )
Yanmar YFL1500 front loader with joystick control and third valve on handle (for a grapple, 4 in 1 bucket, etc...)
Two buckets (6' stock, 5' with a beefy tooth bar)
Yanmar roll bar (non folding, but still under 8')
Curtis Cab Canopy with windshield and cantankerous wiper, as well as the soft-sides for said cab (newer, don't fit as well as I think they should, but it really helps in the winter!
second joystick for top and tilt on the 3ph
Chains for all tires (ring chains on the rear, double-v for the fronts)
Cab has extra lights, tractor has turn signals
Everything but the horn works (and that used to, I just haven't gotten around to fiddling with it).
Shuttleshift R through 3rd, 4 ranges, including creep, on the tunnel.
All manuals (operators, parts, service, as well as for the loader), and brochures from when the unit was originally purchased!
Loaded rear tires
Any thoughts? I know machine prices haven't come down much since I purchased it 6 or 7 years ago, but I've lost touch with what these beasts go for these days. Also, if anyone is in upstate NY (I'm in Warren County) and interested, let me know. Not 100% sure I'll be selling it, but a few things are in the works elsewise so I'm trying to figure out if it's doable to upgrade to a newer cab tractor.
Thank you in advance for your thoughts!
