If the disk is all you have available then go for it. Like the other guys said more speed will cause more ridging. A 4020 can pull a 12 foot disk pretty fast unless it is a heavy plowing disk. Some brands of disks will ridge no matter what you do.
If you have a field cultivator with full sweeps on the shanks it will do a better job on the grass and won't ridge like a disk. Pulling a field cultivator in bean stubble in the fall will wear down the sweeps in a hurry and it's possible fall bean stubble won't go through the field cultivator if it is an older low clearance model or if the combine had a good straw chopper or not. A field cultivator will also leave more trash on top to help hold the soil from erosion.

After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
