Just a little follow up. I went to my dealer last week. He has a 4200 just like mine with 26 hrs on it that is a trade in. So I tried it out on a fairly steep hill on the grounds there. It was very similar to mine with the exception that the shifter was just hard to move all the time. I think it definately needed grease. As far as going down the hill it was also hard to get into reverse when I stopped. The best way I've found to get it in is to have it in first and stop and then kind of slam it back into reverse. It's not a real hard slam, but speed is important it seems, but not so much the effort. I told him I'm going to use if for a while longer and see how it does. He said they are going to contact John Deere and tell them that there is a problem with them anyway. I'll keep you posted if anything else comes up on the problem. Thanks to all!

John, last summer I bought a new 4200 4X4 with industrial tires, SyncShift Tranny, 5ft belly mower, 420 loader w/61" bucket and 3rd SCV for $18,000 not including tax. Hope this isn't too late to help you. I'd say you'd be getting a pretty good deal with the blower and bigger deck.

RCH, Tom G., Rick B. I appreciate all the info. I purchased the 1910 yesterday for $9,500, and got them to throw in a used masters 5' finish mower. The tractor checked out good, and had been taken care of exceptionally. I did however take the 88' 1920 for a test drive, and after a closer look could tell the tractor had a hard life. As far as features I really couldn't find anything the 1920 had the 1910 didn't other than 4 cyl. and seperate pump for power steering. I am very happy with my purchase. The place that had the 1920 wouldn't bust at all on his price, and the tractor had 2000 hours instead of 1200. Something Ive noticed, is that Ford tractors really clean-up well, no matter what model you own. Its something about that blue paint. Again thanks for all the info.

I have found a 86' Ford 1910, great bend 240 loader, 900 hrs, for $10,000, and a 88' Ford 1920, Woods loader, 1200 hrs, for $13,000. What are the big differences between the two models? Are there known problems with either of the models? Any information would greatly be appreciated!

I own a commercial snow removal company an we use JD lawn and garden tractors to remove snow off of side walks. We started out using chains but soon found out that they can be a real headache.The problem is that they still spin and can cause damage to pavement,they are bumpy and if a cross piece comes loose it can scrath up your tractor. Also chains wear and eventually break and a tractor with chains on one side is almost as bad as not having them at all. What we started using were bar tires with some weight on the tractor. The tires seem to hold up well and in reality do not cost much more considering the number of chains you will wear out. If you deside to use bar tire make sure you price around , the price differnce can be pretty healthy. Good luck and remember YA GOTTA LOVE THE SNOW!!!!!

Tim,<br>Thanks! I've been out of town so I'm just now able to read your reply. I think I drove my wife crazy telling her how anxious I have been to read your reply. Sounds like if we combine the two machines we'll have the perfect tractor. I still don't know what I'll do but I'll probally print your post and put it under my pillow tonight and see if I have any revelations.<br>Thanks again!!<br>Matt<br>PS- According to my JD dealer you're not the only one with the scuffing problem. Maybe we just need a hover-craft!!

I just inherited an old cub cadet 1200 (1977) and don't know a thing<br>about it. It has a mowing deck under it but I was wondering if there is <br>any way to attach a larger mower behind or in front of it. My local cub <br>dealer merely informed that they don't make anything that you can pull<br>behind a 1200. Can anyone offer some advice?

<br>John Deere parts. All with parts tags, most begin with part number AR.<br>Crankshafts and other engine parts for two cylinder tractors. Also air cleaners, rear end gears, hundreds of parts that have NOT been installed. Some still in the crate and shipping boxes.
