There is NO direct link between the 4630 and the 4640. The 4630 was SIMULAR, but not the same as the 4620, but when the 40 series was introduced, the 4640/4840 were wide-framed tractors, designed new from the ground up. They both sported the 466 turbo/intercooled engines. They are still much sought after for "field tractors". The 4630 wasn't a stump puller, even with it's 150 HP, because of the 404's relatively limited low end grunt. The 4640 was an "Iron Horse" of another color. Introduced as "The Iron Horses", the 40 series brought a completely new chassis, engine, and SIZE/weight to the table. The chassis saw developement from the 40, 50, 55, and through the 60 series. (I have a 4955...It is a "hoss") No one that's ever seriously used one of the wide-framed Deere's will knock their performance. All in all, as good, if not the BEST big tractors EVER built.
