I worked for a JD dealer when 4020s were still used a lot in our area. the 30 series was new. We did lots of clutchs in the synchro tractors but I don't remember a ps ever coming in with problems. I always thought it was one of the best tractors JD built. That being said the 30 series, was pretty stout. As mentioned the 42s seemed to be hard to start but the 4430s were much better, also more power. If yoou are going to want a cab the 30 series is a lot better as the soundguard cab beat the heck out of the old Hinson and Hiniker cabs on the 4020, most guys wondered if the add on cabs were really an improvement over the "open station" except in the wind. Noise was a big factor. Also seems like adds I see everyone thinks their 4020s are worth more than the newer 30 series, sometimes even 40 series. Since 4020s are now 50 years old I think I would be inclined to look harder at 30 series.
