I have a 50 s Model 40 crawler and I love to push dirt around with it. It works great for grubbing small saplings for clearing land and levelling lawns for seeding and grading gravel driveways. The cylinder that raises and lowers the blade is leaking fluid terribly bad and makes for slow work waiting on the blade to move. I took the cylinder off and took it to a parts place that I have gotten John Deere parts from in the past, but I was told today that a rebuild kit is not available from Deere now. I do not know where to turn to now. Can anyone help me Do you know of a supplier for these antique crawlers Thanks, Fred

Steve Sorrells wrote on Saturday, October 05, 2013 (PDT):

In the late 50 s when I was 11 or 12 Daddy had a Allis Chalmers CA a WC. After I learned to drive, he would pull a JD 4 disc tiller with the WC and I would pull one with the CA to turn land. When I got a little older I would turn land with the WC while Daddy worked a public job. I remember the WC had hand brakes only, the seat was off center to the right and the tiller had a manual lift so when you turned to the left you would reach back and grab the rope to trip the tiller lift while turning the steering wheel to the left. This would throw you even further to the right away from the left brake handle. You would have to really stretch to reach the brake lever to help with the turn. Quite a struggle for a 13 or 14 year old kid. I thought I was in heaven in 61 when he traded both in on a new JD 2010 with power steering and hydraulic connections so we could use a hydraulic cylinder lift.

I have a mint condition 1949 MC Crawler. The first year of the Deere-designed crawler. serial #mc-11476 It is a 2 cylinder Johnny Put Put with a factory front end bulldozer blade and a nicely built logging jammer wench on the back. everything works. Crawler has been stored in a shed. I did not repaint because I liked the old look. This is small enough to fit on a car trailer to bring to the tractor shows. I also have the original operator s manual. I was told several years ago it was worth over 10,000 but since the times are a little harder I will sell it for 7,000 I am located in North Central Wisconsin. You can email me for pictures. My Phone # is 715-339-2789 and ask for Don.

Gary Allason wrote on Tuesday, June 18, 2013 (PDT):

Peter, Your tracks are coming off because either your bushings, pins or drive sprockets are worn. Probably all three unfortunately. Look at your Sprockets, does the right side of your teeth, if the tooth is at 12 o clock have a larger radius than the left that is the side that drives the crawler forward. if so the sprocket is worn. Try backing up your hill. if the tracks stay on that is because there is less use and thus less wear in reverse over time. Your tracks have a pin and a bushing between each link. Idealy, the bushings take the wear and are replaced before there is damage to the sprockets. once the bushings wear out the sprockets contact the pins and both start to wear, . When that happens all three will need to be replaced. the fact that your tension adjustment won t take the slack out of the tracks points to this condition. if your bushings are just starting to wear through, it is possible to rotate them 180 degrees. but that wont help if the sprockets and pins are worn too. Google CRAWLER TRACKS PINS AND BUSHINGS and your will find a lot of good information. Use Google to find a shop that does pin and bushing replacement. You can find used drive sprockets from repitable parts dealers on line. Avoid the advice of reversing the drive sprockets, swapping sides , if you replace your bushings. It s true that doing that will put the side with less wear on the forward side and will last quite a while. the down side is that if you have put new bushings on it will begin to prematurely wear those out every time you back up. If you can rotate rotate your bushings, you might be OK to swap sprocket sides. Good luck.

Just brought home a 420C in very good condition. Starts and operates perfectly. Bought it from an older gentleman who had this 45 years, and it has never spent a night outside in all those years. He recently put on new chains, sprockets, rolls and idlers. Also rebuilt the engine, brakes and clutches. Paid 3,000 and a promise to park inside every night. Bought this to work around my property. I have been in the construction business many years and owned many new large and small dozers over the years, this will the keeper .

I now own a fully restored better than new 1951 G. Just sitting on it takes me back 64 years. It is a blast to take to shows and parades and have people give it the thumbs up and comment how good it looks and sounds. The sound of that mighty 413 cannot be duplicated Love the G

I bought my first John Deere tractor in 1980. Yes, it is a Model H and is a 1941 vintage SN; 25297 . It came home in 3 boxes and when I bought it, I was told that all I had to do was put it together. WRONG! The connecting rods were wrapped around the crank shaft and all of the oil lines had to be replaced because they literally looked like spaghetti. I drove all over East Tennessee hunting parts to put it together. My family laughed at me for sitting in the seat making engine noises. I needed a tractor to haul my fire wood with and this fit the bill for several years into the future. I still use it to haul my granddaughters on rides but no more work for this baby.

When I was on the farm in North Dakota early to mid 1960 s we had a 500 Case that I did alot of field work with.

Hi Gordon, The steering wheel was just another means of attachment on the flywheel to hand start the tractor. I have one and it is an UNSTYLED B tractor and by the way, I am in North Louisiana too. There was a good many of these made. Thanks, Will

I have owned a 1964 2010, gas utility for many years 2nd owner. I have it equipped with a Shwartz loader. I do also have a shifting problem. If the 3 point or hydralics fail it probably a clogged wire mesh transmission filter. I am now retired and would be interested in selling this tractor; does anyone have suggested starting price. The 2010 s were not junk. They have the handiest PTO, and the shift was the only JD Synchro with a 1-2, 3-4, etc shift. All others were 1-3, 2-5, 4-7 and 6-8. I am probably preaching to the choir as you all knew that. If I don t sell the tractor I want to rebuild the transmission any ideas. Holt, Smith Center, Ks

Gordon Donahoe wrote on Tuesday, December 29, 2009 (PST):

My dad and his brother had an old B, I beleive about a 49 model. I have never seen another like it in that its distinguishing mark was an open flywheel. If the starter failed, which it often did they always removed the steering wheel from the steering column and attached it to the opening in the fly-wheel, thus giving them a circular wheel by which to crank the tractor. When it cranked, they would remove the steering wheel, remount it to the column and take off. Any info. about production numbers of this model and any other info would be helpful. This was in North Louisiana.I have never seen another B like it and would like to know. There couldn t have been many build like this.

My daddy and uncle had a John Deere Model GM that they bought in 1942 . The shipment was delayed because of wartime shortages of steel; the dealer called the depot in Louisville says that if they never shipped him another tractor he wanted this one and one other. By the time John Deere shipped it to Columbia, TN the government has shut down of equipment sales so that they had to go thru. the rationing board AAA board, I think . Everybody nearly wanted that big tractor, but the dealer, Mr. Henry Porter, stood and said that, This tractor was ordered for this man and this other tractor was ordered for this other man; I think that they each ought to get them. Mr. Porter took good care of my family during the war as it related to equipment.

No sheet metal, engine, seatframesupport, and other parts. It had a tag! serial number 634725. I got it home and over the next 2 years I have been busy on ebay. I have used parts and NOS parts. Some are expensive, like the fiber discs. I m still in need of one rear wheel rim. I managed to get a hub for one. and a set of 22 tires and tubes. I have three engines to use. 1 Hercules, 2JD LUC.

My grandpa s 1936 Model D serial# 125652 is currently sitting in a tree row on a farm south of Goodland, KS where we parked in it 1969 with still 3 of the original 4 tires on the tractor. On March 18, 1936, he traded an earlier model D serial# 32207 with steel wheels, for the 36 D with rubber tires. The sticker price for the new 36 D was 1490.00, including new wheel weights too, and they gave him 300 trade-in price for the older D. How do I know this I m sitting here now holding the original bill of sale from March 1936. Somehow, my family has perserved this document all these years. Amazing, eh I love old JD s and I love reading all the stories and comments on this website.

FredT wrote on Tuesday, July 22, 2008 (PDT):

RANDY - repairing the rim can be fairly easy or very difficult, depending on where your hole s are. I think the BEST thing to do is to cut a patch from a piece of scrap metal - slightly larger than the hole you mentioned AND the same thickness as the original rim. Weld the patch inside the hole and then fill the depression on the outside with bondo. A little careful work should produce good results. Oh yeah, the welder of choice in this situation would be a MIG welder. FredT

It has square axle housings, roll-a-matic, and the early-style hydraulic valve with the knurled nuts. Any help in locating the tractor would be appreciated. My phone number is 712-239-1643.

The serial number for the 2010 s is located right under the coil or down under and behind the genator on the motor. The 3010 s and 4010 s had the serial numbers behind the seat. John deere did not etch serial numbers in the casting of parts, most of those are part numbers. Thanks

Had a GREAT 420C, agricultural green , back in WV but had to leave it to come to OR. Really miss it as it was my means of getting around on the farm as I am a 100% disabled vet. It brought me many an hour of enjoyment and wish I had it here with me now....they are a good size for doing even big jobs. I had it rebuilt several years ago with new steering cluches and brakes and even had it re-painted and new decals applied, boy do I miss it. We live in the mountains just like back in WV and as it has snowed here the past few days I could sure have fun pushing snow....did I mention that I miss playing on my toy , as my wife called it. For those of you that have your 420 s KEEP them as they are a GREAT joy, if not even for work.

My dad and I owned two 770 s , A 1959 and a 1964. The first one had the Hydra Hitch and the second one had the power Traction hitch. The 64 model was a big improvement. Both ran very well and handled excellent as both were purchased new. The 59 had slow rearend and the 64 had the fast rearend. That 3rd gear at 41/4 miles per hour was a work horse with 3 - 14 semi mounted plow Red Gumbo Hill and a 10 - wheel disk and chain harrow in tandem. The six cyclinder was unbeatable on the PTO. Note; To plow, there must be 4-5 inches thread unscrewed on the left liftarm to enable the plow to perform corectly. Very Important In this era of time these tractors were unequaled for power and price. Cheaper than the 1600 but, just as much power. Also same goes compared to the 3010 JD, Cheaper but just as much power.

Likes to pull plow trucks out of the ditch! Only had to replace the clutch, throw-out, and clutch plate since I bought it. Deere had all the parts. Only weakness is the tracks stretch easy, so I have to keep after the idler tension adjustment.

I have a 1961 2010 that I bought about 5 years ago and I don't know who the idiot is that said this was the black sheep of the family- it has performed every job I set before it, from cutting with a J.D. #37 9ft. sickle mower to raking to baling with a N.H. 847 round baler. This tractor also has a farmhand F-10 loader that has a grapple fork attached and I use it for feeding in the winter because it starts better than my 3020 or my 4010 diesels. I would also like to mention that it starts in any weather and believe me Manitoba winters are damn cold. The tractor is all original and restored with nothing more than a coat of paint- the guy I bought it from only used it in the farmhand making loose hay since he bought it new. This is one great tractor and I absolutely love it.

My Father (in Minnesota) has a 1960 (about) John Deere 730 Diesel with wide front, electric start, 24 volt system, JD fenders with lights, live hydralic, live power take off, dual hydrolic system, JD 3-point hook-up, power steering, good rubber on tires and overall is in excellent condition. He is 76 years old and is starting to think (typical farmer) about retirement. Can someone give me an idea of what this tractor is worth? He has received some inquiries about selling. Thank you.

As founder and president of the newly formed Bluebonnet Antique Tractor Club (BR171 of EDGETA) in Pearland, TX, I have been collecting JD's going on two years now and once I got up close and personal w/a "G", I knew I had to have one. Fortunately I had dealings with Fred Rademacker (a regular seller on the YT site) of Green Valley, IL and he had one of the most beautiful restored "G's" around and offered to sell it to me. Without any hesitation whatsoever, I accepted his offer and brought this tractor to TX, and must say that the "G" (in my opinion) is probably THE finest row crop tractor of it's era that JD ever built. Once you own a "G", you'd probably get rid of it for ONLY one reason; to buy a nicer and/or better "G"!

I have 2 39 F-20s. One has been housed throughout its life, the second not which I just bought. I have an owners manual for it, very useful!! V-fan belts indicates that they are both 39s. I used the best 20 for pulling wood wagons, making fence and for nursery work as I have an add-on toolbox. The governor real responds well under load and it has a road gear infront on the transmission and really hauls tail!! Faster than my 3020!! My other 20 I just bought and is froze up. I have removed the valve cover and Liquid Wrenched the springs up and under, and the pushrods. Also did the spark plug holes after taking out plugs. Parked my JD 3020 parallel to it and engaged the crank on the 20 and rapped a chain around it and a "come along" to the end of the chain and to the 3020 frame and applied some pressure and holding now for the Marvel Mystery oil& Liquid Wrench to work. This 20 needs a fan shroud, a toolbox under the tank and the motor freed up & tires. Drawbar shows very little wear. On the hood on top by the radiator cap is a bracket that looks like it had a generator attached to it. Also the belt pulley on the crankshaft has 2 slots--one for the v fan belt and the other apparently for the generator that used to be there. This one also has the mag missing but I got one--the right one to go on. If it turns out as good as my good one gosh I'd be happy. Anybody got a fanshroud and a tool box that is relatively decent??

Had a 901 Selecto high profile with the California wide front end full adjust in out for 22 inch or wider rows, had to rebuild the engine. Did a complete rebuild from crank and bearings new on up. Parts for motor still on market for the 134 cube motor. SOS tranny worked fine on this one, the gas tank was rusted and crapped out so we bought a reconditioned tank that had a liner blown into it and it was as good as a new tank. This one was red and grey but had gold paint on base almost like primer. It also had a Golden Jubilee emblem in the front of the hood. I heard that was 1953 the anniversary for Ford tractor 50 years out. Great tractor to mow,rake,bale,bushhog,cultivate,ditch,it worked nice with the almost automatic tranny and watched the neighbors getting gears and jamming clutches in shift combat. Traded it in last year restored for a 1997 6200 JD with cab and modern features, it was time for us to move out of the 1950,era. Ron's Equipment in Ft. Collins Colorado has parts for all Fords and knows the ropes on them. Good shop for R&R or restorations too.

I have inherited a JD 2010 from my recently deceased father who bought it a few years ago. This tractor does have a loader that worked well until it blew a seal. It was driven and parked behind the barn 2 years ago to wait for help. Well here I am, and I tried to pull it out today with a larger tractor and found that the right rear wheel is locked up whether you hold the clutch down or shift it through the gears. The left rear wheel rotates fine. Is this a stuck or frozen transmission or could it be the brakes may have froze up on the right side? We tried to pull it forward and backward to try to break the wheel loose with no results except a lot of torn up sod. This tractor needs my help and I need yours. Please help if you have any info or ideas. The serial number of the engine tag is 2010RU14398 if that helps.....

Sounds like everyone has the same problems, finding parts for their super 55. I am looking for the center grill piece and the PTO guard. Plus I am looking for some one who is willing to talk about what the tractor is worth today. Not that I want to sell it. Seems like no one wants to talk worth, but they really want to buy it. I have put in several of these comments on other sites with no success. I'm like all the rest of you. Its a great tractor and I have several dollars wrapped up in it on restore and have enjoyed taking it to shows, just to have someone say. Why did you paint that Ford green? Reflects that I don't live in Oliver country. If some one knows please contact me, and good luck on finding parts. One other comment. I recently converted my super 55 to 12v with the help of the artical in Yesterdays tractor, it was a sinch and the best thing I could have done to it. Thanks JD.

I own an industrial 420C. My brother and I got it from our parents when they sold their ranch. I grew up using it to plow snow with as well as for back filling ditches, etc and my father used it on fire lines as our ranch was quite remote from fire fighting equipment at the time. People would stop in off the road wanting to buy it, but we opted to keep it and I'm glad we did. It has approx. 691 hours on it and is currently being rented out for finish work on roads, and around a small sand and gravel operation so it is still earning it's keep. People keep trying to buy it from me for way less than it is worth. It has a Holt hydraulic dozer that will swivel 2 or 3 points either direction or straight on. The hydraulics will pick up the front end of the dozer easily. It is definitely a keeper. 2 contributions to Farmshow Magazine have rated the 420c as a "Best Buy." Marvin Bjorge Polson, Montana

I was wondering if his family has shed storage to protect all 35 of those B.O. Lindemann crawlers, etc. Would like to have one of the running rigs. We used to work with a 1957 JD 420 Crawler with a dozer blade, winch and Gafner hydraulic pulp/log loader. The quick forward/reverser feature in any gear was real nice. Also the dozer blade float feature was nice to use. We always knew where the JD was working within a mile or two by the unique John Deere vertical twin sound. It could make some wicked high snow banks in the yard with the heavy snows we got in the 60's in Upper Michigan.

Jim from Akron, NY wrote on Monday, March 08, 2004 (PST):

What a great site. My wife and I own a 1960 2010 with a narrow front end. I should say my wife owns it. When she and her ex-husband split up, he got the washer and drier and she got the tractor. She absolutly loves it and even calls it "Big John". It was the primary tractor on our small horse farm doing everything from spreading manure and mowing hay to clearing snow and bush hogging. It lost oil pressure in the fall of 2003 so I decided it was time to finally overhaul the engine. I'm having a little trouble finding parts and everything, if available, has to be special ordered. It seems that the engine is unique to the 1010 and 2010 only. The latest problem was finding the engine sleeves. Only the 2010 has the sleeves and the top engine plate as one assembly. I finally found one in Michigan from a dealer who had one for years by mistake. I hope this is the last roadblock to getting the tractor back together because spring is coming and I need it to do hay! Although I've had my problems with it, I chalk them up to age more than poor design. I think it's a great tractor and fills our needs better than any of the more popular small Fords or IHs.

Beautiful tractor Bruce. My Dad had a G that unfortunately we had to part with when our family was forced to auction off the family farm two years ago. And man what a powerhouse that old girl was? A neighbor friend of my Dad's before he passed away, came to lend a hand while preparing for this auction, and I'll never forget the thrill we all shared on the day when he'd finally managed to get the old popper running again. That G could climb hill's from a standing start in sixth gear, as this gentelman demonstrated to us that day. And it sure would have done Dad's heart proud to have been with us to experiance what we did when his old G fired up and moved under it's own power once more. Sleep well Dad and remember we love you and miss you so much each and every day.

730 JD; Kathy Hudson since your tractor runs like new you could restore it to different levels. For instance; 1960 361CID gas 59hp lo 2750 med 4150 hi 5320 1960 376CID dsl 59hp lo 2740 med 4175 hi 5300 If it has good rubber, looks sharp and purrs like a large bore 2 cyl kitten you combine that with good sales ability and you will do just fine. The new owner will be getting a solid value with decent tractor performance once you peak up your JD 730.

My Uncle Al had one of these in the sixties when I spent my summers on the family farm north of Appleton, Wisconsin. I believe it was a 48 or 49 model, narrow front. One summer I particularly remember, we gassed up during haying and took a quick lunch break. During lunch the old G burst into flames. By the time the volunteer fire department got there it was pretty well going/gone. Got shipped to Schwandt's in Shiocton for overhaul and paint, came back like a new one. My uncle kept it until mid 7o's when he traded up for a JD 70D - better fuel economy. That baby had lots of power, I remember plowing in blue clay and gumbo in third gear all day, lots of power but gulped the gas!

I have owned both F-12& F-14 and can tell you that if I ever had to do any real farming again and I was to choose between the two I would take the F-14 hands down. The rpm difference really makes tractor out of it. I remember an old friend of mine who once had an F-12 and sold it to buy a JD B unstyled(I know shame on him!)I was plowing with my first F-14 I had owned. I was using his AC 2x12 plow and we were in some pretty hard gound. My friend was riding along and we were plowing a good 8 inches deep. I had the F-14 in 2nd gear and pulling it with NO problem. My friend said boy this b*#ch really has the sauce. One the best compliments a guy can get from one of the green guys.

My Grandfather had an H, two As, two Bs, two 620s, two 3020s, a 4010 or 4020 (can't remember which), and a 4430. Of course, he didn't have all of these at one time. Unfortunately, he passed away about 5 years ago, but my grandmother still speaks fondly of the old H he had. She never let anyone learn to drive on a tractor on her watch that didn't have a hand clutch. He got his H in 1942 during the war, and had to jump through a lot of hoops to get it. He taught me a lot of lessons about hard work, and one of the things I remember most is that he said 'if it isn't green, it isn't worth a damn'. I live in the city in an apartment now (yeah, it's like being in jail) and I haven't heard a popper in years. I have to admit I get a little jealous when I see all the posts of people restoring old tractors. Some of my favorite memories are of heading to friends houses and taking a couple of Johnny Poppers out across the farms and hitting fishing holes. I can't think of a better way of getting from pond to pond.

Regarding Model "R" John Deere's. My Dad bought one in the spring of 1961. I was 17 years old. It replaced as the farm working tractor a 29 Model "D". This "R" had the engine rebuilt. The former owner had 2 R's bought new and replaced them when the 4010's came out. We bought the "R" for $1800.00. The "R"'s, if not properly warmed up or put to work too soon would score the cylinder wall. This happened to this tractor. So it was rebuilt, 45 over and tuned up. The other R sold for $1700. but the tires were not so good. The first spring we broke an axle disking on soil bank, shop warranty, and in the late 70's the starting engine blew it's crank. Also I developed a crack in the head and had it replaced in the early 80's. This served as the main tractor on a 640 acre farm in North Dakota until thelate 80's when it was replaced by a 4025jd. I purchased this tractor in 2000 from my 84 year old Dad in exchange for a riding lawn mower and a small tilting utility trailer at a cost of $1265.00. The engine still runs good. I give hayrides with this tractor. What a show to start in cool weather. The tractor is apart right now, am having the rearend gone through. The rear oil pump that lubes the transmission wasn't working due to a bearing failure. This in turn lead to underlubing of the moving parts in the rear diferential. Both side gears need replacing as well as pump parts and the like. It will also restore the pto and hydrolics. Tractor has new rubber all the way around. In answer to several questions above, The Model "R" weighs empty 7200 lbs empty. My "R" has fluid in tires, about 450 lbs each, plus 2 wheel weight inside and outside of each rear wheel. I'm guessing about 150 lbs per weight= about 1200 lbs in weights totaling overall about 92 to 9400 lbs with fuel and water. There is a plug behind and to the rear of the flywheel to check for oiling of transmission. Transmission pump styles changed at serial # 5100 and were a little easier to service. My tractor is # 4384. Can you tell if I'm proud of my little smoker. My two grandsons, age 9 and 5 love it to, cuz it Grandpa's tractor 651-437-6256 Add. 3489 Cory Ln, Hastings Mn.

Just bought a 1964 2010 Industrial Loader on Ebay, It has about a 42 horse gas engine that runs great, I'm still getting used to it but I can already tell I need to spend a lot of time adjusting and tightening everything up. The steering is extreamly loose, I'm going to attempt to adjust the steering box and grease the tie rod ends to tighten it up.

My first tractor was a 1066. I later traded it for a JD 4630. The JD had a better cab, and planetaries instead of bull gears. But the the IH was definitely a better "lugger", and I LOVE the sound of International engines.

Herb Hutnak wrote on Wednesday, November 27, 2002 (PST):

for Peter Howie; I can'thelp with a cylinder head but will pass along this info. The heads usually crack between the turbulence chambers because of heat buildup before the thermostat opens. This can be corrected by removing the bypass hose fittings at the thermostat housing and the water pump and carefully drilling them out to 11/32". (Both ends of the elbow from the thermostat housing have to be drilled out.) This allows the head and block to heat more evenly and prevents a slug of cold water from getting to the head and cracking it.

I was raised on John Deere green and still love the stuff, but just aquired a 930 and a 500. As a kid if 15 I worked for Farms in Alberta and had the opportunity to spend many hours on a 500. It was a brute compared to Dad's JD 70 Diesel, and it would have pulled that machine around against it's will. I remember the heat from that beast and the lulling sound of that fine machine, and the fact that it never broke, It's taken me 40 years to get back to driving one and it's Not for sale. I even called my last kid Case Brodie.

I intend to use it to clear some of my land of Mesqete Trees.For those of you unfamiliar with these trees,theyhave beautiful wood grain when large enough to harvest,wonderful picture frame material and and great for smokeing meat.Problem is -they have very strong two and three inch needles when young and on farm land.Makes tillage w/ a regular wheel tractor nearly impossible.I hope to post a picture of this beast in its present run down condition soon.I would like to locate a power steering unit for it.

I've blown the engine in my 2010 diesel backhoe and need to either rebuild or replace it. I haven't had any luck finding a good used engine. Seems to be a lot of people think that engine wasn't very good, and so far I can't disagree. Does anyone know where I might get a decent 2010 diesel engine in Washington or Idaho, or do you know of a source of rebuild parts other then JD themselves? Also, do any other engines fit? The backhoe is an additional complication with an engine swap because the hydraulic pump drives off the front end of the crank and my tranny has no PTO in it.

Aaron - I'm no expert on IH tractors, but if my memory serves me right, back in the days when I was into pulling (early to mid 70's) I believe the 1066's cranked out about 115 hp. They always dominated at the tractor pulls in my south central Wisconsin hometown. The Oliver 1750's and 1755's didn't have as much hp and the JD's didn't have traction to out pull those big red monsters.

My older brother and I used it around the farm near Appleton City, Missouri until the mid 1960's. The tracks (pins and bushings) were in bad need of repair. My father had started to make the required parts, but never got the job done. In about 1969 my father disposed of the tractor in Independence, Missouri before moving to Hawaii to retire. I do not have any place to use one, but would like to own one at some time in the future. I have fond memories of the one we had when I was young.

Bruce Marshall wrote on Thursday, August 09, 2001 (PDT):

John Deere B, Brings back memories. Safety is the one that stands out the most. In 1957 running in 6 gear, throttle wide open, I decided to turn into the hay field. Well let me tell you, when the rear inside wheel decided to lift from the ground I knew it was time to get off the tractor!! HOW??!! Never had to leave in a hurry before and all I saw was the big rear tires beside me. Had to jump over them somehow. I released the steering wheel, grabed the side rails of the seat and stood up ready to leave the tractor. t That by the way had now traveled well over 100ft on two wheels. Lucky for me, by releasing the steering wheel it alowed the tractor to counter steer just enough for it to gently set back down on all wheels, throttle still running wide open , and still in 6th gear and with me frozen to the seat staring straight ahead. For a 13 year old farm boy that was a very good lesson. So... I guess my point is..Don't do That!

Mine is a second owner and has had an easy life, shifts fine (by the way this was a early 60's problem for all makes with console shift not just Deere, ever drive a IH 706 that the gear shift hadn't been broke off two to three times) It does have something leaking in the trans. area, the bell housing is soaked as well as the clutch. Engine oil stays up so it's in the trans. somewhere? Has anybody found the culprit.

the B was the first tractor i owned,not that long ago either. it was a later 40s with a rolomatic and a powertol system. it also had a sears and roebuck loader. it was a powerful tractor and moved a bunch of logs, but the loader was an adventure to load hemlock logs, and what a gas hog! but she served me well. she's in the hands of a guy that'll give her a good home and not make her work anymore.

I really enjoy my 2010. I just replaced the starter armature with a Delco rebuilt and it starts great every time. I use a 509 rotary cutter (brush-hog) and swear that I can take down brush that has a 2" radius at the base. I am having problems now with my choke. It's unhooked at the dash panel. Any suggestions on how to repair the choke easily?

Our 2010 John Deere we did alot of work with it and it was a very good tractor. Back in the 60's we put up hay and plowed our fields with our 2010 tractor and we were able to pull 3-16 plows with our tractors. It was one of the best tractors we ever own.

Dennis S. wrote on Saturday, May 19, 2001 (PDT):

For years a F-14 was the only tractors on my Dad's farm (really a hobby farm, I guess). It was a multi-fuel, and had the little tank on top of the hood. That tractor was the first I drove and the4 first I started by myself. I knew where to set the Mag advance so it wouldn't kick. I don't know how little I was, but I remember setting the crank sideways and getting on top of it to swing it. And did I catch -ell for that! But that "old" tractor was the only tractor to start when it got to twenty below and stayed there for a week. That "14" was belted to the neighbors JD's to start them, and they had been sitting in a nice warm barn all night. The "14" sat outside under a tree, while our new tractor sat in the shed and also refused to start.

You know Jarod I just can't believe that a person could like having junk like that around. I mean you know the problems first-hand. The tranny's in those things, in my opinion, are junk. A person spends more time messin' with the gears than actually driving it. I guess that is why Internationals were invented!

I just went through the brakes and wheel seals, fuel valve, new starter and switch, oil and temp gauges are both new from John Deere and the fuel and gas tank has been restored. All it needs is a little body work on the hood and a paint job. I'm wanting to sell it or trade for an A, B, D or an R that is running condition. If anyone is interested it wouldn't take much for parade condition.

Just bought a 57 420c. Not as nice as the photo but seems in good overall condition. One problem is an oil leak in the left steering clutch. I'm new to crawlers and am interested if anyone has parts such as seals or can provide advice on the repair of this nice little machine. This unit has a dozer blade with manuel angle attachment. I noticed a crack in the weld on one side of the support for the blade. Is there any recommendations for how to attack this other than a weld over the existing crack? I don't believe that there is enough room for a fish-plate between the bracket and the edge of the track. Up here in Vermont we see a lot of snow and mud, is there any recommendations as to the maintainence of the lower rollers in this type of environment? Any help or leads for a source of parts would be appreciated. Thanks
