Just goes to show that all 2520's aren't good investments.

He must be a jester for a jockey. Stuck his foot in the door 3 times now, every time about this same time of year.

Too bad to see a 2520 abandoned out in the rain and weather like that .
Is there a rain cap on the exhaust ?
What is with the looped hose in the SCV ?
What is the cables and hitch added to the front weights ?
PTO shield and head lights ?

Normally looped hose attached to rear breakaways on JD tractors with closed center hyd system is used to increase temp of hyd to perform hyd diagnostic procedures or when needing to operate tractor hyd's during extreme cold weather.

I see no cable attached to clevis. My guess is clevis was utilized to tow start the gasoline powered engine

I see this tractor has an aftermarket wide frt axle.
