    Pieces/Parts JD 420 U

    Totally agree with you CPeter -- good tractor. We had a loader on our "user" but it was way too heavy for it, and we dumped it. I think "30" loader? Don't remember now. We are early baby-boomers and it seems we always have more to do than we have time to do, so restoration on this won't...

    Pieces/Parts JD 420 U

    Have not visited here for a long time! We have a running/using 420U. Found one recently in pieces/parts, same year and specs as ours. Owner bought it (running, straight sheet metal) at an auction and decided it would be a good retirement restoration project. He tore it all apart, cleaned...

    JD 30 Loader -- Question(s)

    Have a JD 30 loader that came on a 420U we purchased a couple of years ago. I am told (by someone who knows WAY more about old equipment than I do) that it is in original or near original condition, except that it's been painted; it has not been "gerry rigged" or obviously modified. My...

    JD wiring diagram -- A vs. AR ??

    Sorry, saw a typo on my post . . . 'A' models up to 584000 (rather than 58400--I guess that would be into 1947), or 584000+ (later 1947 and beyond). K. Howard

    JD wiring diagram -- A vs. AR ??

    I have a copy of the JD 2-cyl wiring diagram book, which shows the wiring diagram for the "A" model up to serial no. 58400; and another for models 584000+. I have a 1953 "AR", no. 283548 -- would the wiring for that be the same as for the 58400+ A models? Thanks! K. Howard

    John Deere '30' Loader - What's it worth?

    I don't have a good, clear photo of it -- it's out in not-well-lighted barn. The previous discussion thread on this unit, however, was originally posted by "leinhit" (Hi, Steve!) on 5/11/06; I bought the tractor and loader in September of '06. Kathie

    John Deere '30' Loader - What's it worth?

    I bought a JD 420-U out of Michigan a couple years ago that came with a JD '30' loader -- and the only reason I know it's a '30' is that the previous owner was looking for info about it, posted here on the forum, and you guys helped him identify it. It has a fairly recent coat of green paint...

    John Deere 30 Loader

    James, thanks for the info! If anyone is looking for one of these loaders, I wouldn't ask as much as $1,000 for it. kmh

    John Deere 30 Loader

    We have taken the JD 30 loader off our JD 420U--it seemed to be causing some front-end wear, and we weren't really using it. Thinking about selling it--anyone have a clue what one of these is worth in good to very good condition? Would appreciate your expertise! Thanks KMH
