Hello
I ran across a JD side dresser unit a few days ago. I was wondering which models does it fit? I think it will work on a 430 or 420 JD but im not 100 % sure

The 420/430 Standards used a #41A Side Dresser. It looks similar but different from yours. . . the 40-430 (as well as 320, 330 tractors)had the jack shaft (lower shaft with two gears) mounted on the bell housing. Yours seems to be mounted on the bracket that attaches to the tractor. You may have the side dresser unit from a 1010 tractor, dont know the model number off the top of my head.
Hope that helps. . . Ill attach a picture of the 430 I restored with the #41A Side Dresser.

It looks like a side dresser from a 1948 M. It was driven by a drive shaft on the lower part of the right hand bull gear. A chain went from that to power the unit. The drive shaft was often broken which is why they were not used. JD also made a one row planter that worked the same way. [ two cans]I looked for years to put on my JD M but could not find the drive shaft. It was a good idea for this little tractor. I finely cut down a 80 planter and made a 3 pt for it. I pull with my 8N. I plant 8 to 10 Ac of sweet corn on 48 inch rows for farm mkt. Ed
 
Ok. Thank yall for your help. It could be for the 1010 or a M. But I think the drive unit is different from the 430/420 by looking at the pic. The hopper may cross over (or atleast it looks like it will). Thanks again for your help
 
Looking thru my parts book Id say its a 41B side dresser, used on the S-1 cultivator for a 1010 tractor.

Other pieces you need are the "clutch basket," the piece that engages/disengages the fertilizer drive when you lower/raise the cultivator rig.
