    John Deere 2555 Loader Seems Slow

    Loader is tied directly into the Hydraulic system. I have had the tractor for about three months. The original owner passed away and the tractor had been sitting for several years. 1900 real hours.

    John Deere 2555 Loader Seems Slow

    I’ve got a John Deere 2555 with 146 loader and factory fender mount joystick and valve combo. The tractor has the 23gpm hydraulic pump. Compared to my 2030 and 2630, both of which have the exact same set up, this loader just seems sluggish. The joy stick on my 2555 when pulling back to raise the...

    John Deere 2555 Transmission Grind

    The clutch is mechanical, but it is a diaphragm clutch so there isn’t really any adjustment. The free travel is at 1 inch. I have tried less and more, but really no change.

    John Deere 2555 Transmission Grind

    Tractor has single stage clutch with independent PTO. Also, all of the 30 and 40 series that I have are collar shift and do not shift this hard.

    John Deere 2555 Transmission Grind

    I assumed that the 2555 collar shift trans was the same as the older 30 and 40 series that I mentioned? Never had this issue with the older tractors.

    John Deere 2555 Transmission Grind

    Right stick is the gear selection and the left is the range/reverse selection. Starting with both in neutral, the right stick is smooth with no grind. Left stick then grinds. Starting with both in neutral, the left stick will grind and then the right stick will grind.

    John Deere 2555 Transmission Grind

    Just bought a 2555 with the collar shift transmission. When I purchased the tractor, the transmission would grind between every gear and every range. Once in gear and range, and clutch still depressed, it would shift perfectly to any position. However, when clutch pedal was let off, it would...

    John Deere 1020 PTO Brake Band

    I ended up buying a new one from Deere…. Cost a ton but works like a champ now. Was costly, but was very simple to fix. Rebuilt the clutch pack as well while I was there.

    JD 1020 Bell Crank “press in” Pin Replacement

    I dug into the 1020 yesterday afternoon and got lucky. The original bell crank looked fantastic so I just replaced all of the bushing and put it all back together. Everything is tight and drives like a brand new tractor. Thanks for the help!

    JD 1020 Bell Crank “press in” Pin Replacement

    Jim I agree that that part number is for different tractors. However, in my research I found that a 2030 and a 1020 with swept back axels both use the same bell crank, part number AT19794. Considering that, that is why I concluded that the AL19725 pin from A&I should theoretically work. We shall...

    JD 1020 Bell Crank “press in” Pin Replacement

    I’ve got a 1020 that needs a new bell crank. Considering that a new bell crank from Deere is very expensive, I have considered pressing in a new pin for my original bell crank. The pin part number is AL19725. My question is, has anyone ever successfully gone this route? As you can see in the...

    John Deere 1020 PTO Brake Band

    I have a 1020 that needs a PTO brake band. Part number is RE43393 (AT29686) John Deere wants $800 for the part. I have had success with A&I aftermarket parts, but they do not offer this part. Any suggestions or should I just bite the bullet and get the Deere part. I’m not really interested in...

    1982 MF 245 with Square Headlights - Needs a Grill

    Now that's funny right there lol. I think the plan right now is to try a grill from a 231s. They had the square headlights as well. If it works, I'll let everyone know.
