John Deere 420 C

Post by cowwbboy » Wed Nov 07, 2012 5:50 pm

I'm new to older john deere crawlers. I am now looking to buy a 420. Is there any thing I need to look for while inspecting it. It runs and has a loader on it.
I would say it's about average cond. What would be an average price for one.

Thanks for any help.

John Deere 420C

I sold one for $1800.00 3 years ago. Ran good,steered good, pins/bushings 40%,nearly new condition sprockets, loader worked fine,and it needed about half of the rollers replaced and front idlers needed some attention. It was usable, but would probably run out of a track on a side hill. The things I mentioned are things you should look for when shopping. Greg

I just bought one???. It has a mc hood and grill on it. It's a 420 the only problem is the tag for the serial is missing. Is there any other place on it where the serial # might be. I would like to post a few photos but can't seem to get them on the site. I have mac lap top any help on how to do this would be nice.

No, chassis number is only on the tag itself.

Thanks Lavoy

I would like to post some photos or e-mail them to you and get your thoughts. I'd love to know a little about the the machine and loader as well.
