Quote: Jim.ME (quoted from post at 08:37:18 08/23/22) From what I find in the JD parts catalogs 400D gets you "400D Articulated Dump Truck". When you say 400D, 400-d, etc., because it is diesel, it only confuses things as people are looking for a D series 400 tractor, which does not exist. Since these were available as gas or diesel, referring to it as a diesel 400 or 400 diesel would be best, omit the capital D.
To clear up confusion what is the entire serial number info from the tag. The tag should be on the right side of the transmission about 6 inches above the running board and transmission dipstick.
As for the tach. From the parts catalog it looks like there may have been a different cam used when tachometer equipped, as the tach cable was driven from gear installed in the rear of the camshaft. If it is equipped for a tach, there should be a place for the cable and driven gear to connect in the clutch housing plate at the rear of the engine about in line with the rear end of the cam.
Sorry Jim. The last thing I want to do is anger folks here. I got the model and serial numbers from a 35-year-old bank document below:
The owner's manual shows the model and serial number to be just if front of the starter (I think).....
.....but there's nothing there:
Nothing here either:
