420c blade question

Post by 4010 Deere » Mon Aug 10, 2009 10:46 am

I bought a 420C industriral (all yellow) last summer. Excellent shape. It has what i come to find out an Atkins(?) Iron Works blade and lift also in excellent condition. The lift system is on the outside of the tracks, and although it really nice to work on the engine with it there, it looks rather ''bulky''. I'd like to put a #62 (?) blade and lift on the crawler. Question is can this be done without major modification to the tractor and would this significantly change the value of the tractor since it didn't come from the factory with a 62 on it and does it make a difference since it's an industrial?

There should be no problem, and no modifications. As to value, adding a factory blade will increase the value. Industrial is only a paint code, no difference in the crawler itself.
