I have ordered a bucket level indicator for my 420 loader [on a 4300]. The one that came said it was for a 70 loader. The rod is too short to be visible out the top end of the tube. The dealer re-ordered a second time and JD sent the same one. I suppose that I could saw off a part of the tube, but think it whould come the correct length.Has anyone purchased a bucket level indicator for the 420 loader the was the correct size?Thanks,Doug

You need to cut the outer tube for the bucket level indicator. Lay your bucket so it is Flat on the ground.. then take a marker or something and mark the outside case.. the inside rod should be about 3 inches or so inside the outer tube before you cut.. I think all the indicators are the same.. Take a look at my tractor pics on this message board.. (flasher light guards/hooks photos) and let me know if your indicator looks like mine.. if so cutting is all you need to do.. ....

Same problem. Same loader. Dealer replaced indicator and it now works properly. I suspect they ordered the wrong indicator. ....

I'm not sure if this helps but with 430 loader on 4300, bucket level went in with no problem. It fit exactly as required, no cutting. ....

Dough I spoke to my dealer yesterday to order a bucket level indicator, for a 420 loader, I ask him if it was different from the 70 loader he told me the 420, 430 and 440 loaders took the same indicator, you may want to check with your dealer and see witch one he ordered, if you need I can get the part number, just email back, hope this helps. ....

The last I knew, they were all the same indicators for each of the different models. Not much to it, just take a Hack Saw and cut it on level ground if you need to.. pretty easy.. takes 5 minutes.. ....

I have a 420 loader with a bucket indicator and has worked properly since I recieved it without having to cut anything off. It sounds like you have the wrong level indicator! ....
