43e 0 and 440 will work as well, but will not be correct.
I have a 420 block and head on hand if you need one.

Howard,
As long as it is set up for a hoe, should go right on.

FINALLY, I have the short exhaust pipe from the manifold to the muffler on 420-440 back in stock. For those of you that had inquired, sorry for the delay, they are here now.
Lavoy

The weld on sprocket rings I think he is referring to are the weld on 350 rims, they do not fit a 2010.

Where I am at right here, it is "pool table" flat for the most part. That is why the kids harass me for a snow hill every Winter. Like I really need an excuse to push snow, but that is what I tell people.
Lavoy

That is an aftermaket blade, I can't help on the manufacturer. There might be a tag on it somewhere that will identify it, or maybe someone where will recognize it.
Lavoy

If all you are doing is the track adjusters, any grease guy will be fine.
Levers should sit on the stops, if they don't, something is out of whack.

All you guys with your pics of pushing snow made me jealous, so here are some from the snowy North. http://www.jdcrawlers.com/uploads/420.jpg http://www.jdcrawlers.com/uploads/4202.jpg Some of you have asked what I mean by "snow wings", here you can see how they work. http://www.jdcrawlers.com/uploa...

An hour sooner, and he would have a pretty good chunk of change still in his pocket. Now the towing company and the body shop are going to get it. Can't realy fault the kid in the tow truck, at 35 degrees in wet snow, nothing with rubber tires would have done it unless it had chains. Again reinforce...

They used to come in just a brown color. I think that Deere impregnates the leather with something like a preservative and that makes it look like a darker natural leather color.
Usually they get treated eventually with a little hyd oil conditioner when the seal on the tilt cylinder leaks.

I forgot to mention, he slid the trailer in so far that when it tilted, it put a big crease across the side of the pickup box, and bent the running boards on the horse trailer. All in all, at least a $1000 day for that guy.

It can vary quite a bit depending on the condition of your crawler, and how deep into it you want to go. The other thing is it is quite time consuming, you would be without your crawler for a while.
If you want, give me a call sometime and we can discuss it.

My fingers got ahead of my brain. Quite an accomplishment as I type real slow, unfortunately I think even slower. The original ones were made of leather, not rubber. They seem to stand up fine. One thing that is not on the 440 that they added to the 1010 is a sheet of steel directly above the cylind...

You might be able to take the image and save it to your computer. I guess I did not try it, but that is what I hoped would work. If not, e-mail me and I can send it to you.

Well, I went to the farm and got my brothers 420 with a 62 blade and 8G Gearmatic on the back. Wife calls before I even get home and tells me that our driveway is blocked by a pickup and horse trailer. I get home to a 30' horse trailer hooked to a crew cab dually laying off the side of my neighbors ...
