August, IMHO...The reason 4010s/4020s still bring big money is this simple reason. Go buy a ragged out tractor for $4500 or so put $15K to 20K into a Total Restoration You will have a 90 HP tractor that will last for a 20 yrs if given reasonable care. You and your Son can wrench on. Little to No plastic crap a real tractor Not a no name R.O.C. POS! Abilene Machine @ Abilene Ks have Long blocks ready to go. That old Straight 8 speed tranny is just about as bullet proof as any. Not terribly handy for loader work but will serve you well. IMO $3K to $5K should have it in perfect shape. $1K in New Rear rubber. $200 in Airplane tire/wheel combos for the front. We can buy Wheel Wts for less than $100 a pair, so Six on each rear corner, ( 3 inside, 3 outside) You can't buy a 80/90 Hp tractor for That Money!!! and have a local Store front to go get Parts/Service when you need it. If you do the above!! Go head and send it to the Paint shop! Get the Dents pulled out and Paint it, Decals everything! You will treat it like a new tractor instead of a rebuilt tractor!!! B-I-L has a 4010 Dsl it is the handiest tractor on his place. Every job where a 150+++ HP tractor is too Big and Clumsy. Get a Quote from your local JD Dealer so you have an Idea of what JD Shop Time is worth! OBTW,, a Koyker 565 loader should fit quite nicely and handle Round bales very well. Hope this helps!

In the exhaust you can hear an occasion 'poofing' sound like somethings not firing on all cylinders. Under loaded conditions the tractor seems to lack power and it belches black smoke out of the exhaust. For some reason it just doesn't want to start up without cranking and cranking the starter. All these conditions can be signals that your unit is in need of a tune up. Ok, so what is involved in a tune up? You say, swap plugs and file the points....now tha
