I had a 2030 JD loader tractor. Have had 656 gear drive loader tractors. Like the hydro much better. Gear drive has the shifter on the right. Deere shifter is in the middle so you can raise and lower the loader while shifting. Hydro 656/666/686 forward/reverse lever on the left. Deere has a stouter front axle, lower center of gravity, lower overall to get in lower overhead spots. The Deere does have a problem in the steering, a weak spot. This pivot point pin has a bushing that wears causing sloppy steering needs changed often. I used the 2030 400 hrs a year on loader and spraying, had a #48 loader. Very seldom removed even though it was quick attach. Used the loader in the fall to load and unload harrows used in spraying Avadex. 5 12' harrows behind the 60' wheel boom. Also loaded spreader truck when stilling peppermint. Changed the bushing every 2 years, not hard at all....James

Today's Featured Article - Oil Bath Air Filters - by Chris Pratt. Some of us grew up thinking that an air filter was a paper thing that allowed air to pass while trapping dirt particles of a particles of a certain size. What a surprise to open up your first old tractor's air filter case and find a can that appears to be filled with the scrap metal swept from around a machine shop metal lathe. To top that off, you have a cup with oil in it ("why would you want to lubricate your carburetor?"). On closer examination (and some reading in a AC D-14 service manual), I found out that this is a pretty ingenious method of cleaning the air in the tractor's intake tract.
