Does anybody know if there is any weight difference between the frame on a John Deere 730 diesel versus a 70 diesel and if the 70 is lighter will it fit on a 730. Just kicking around some other ideas for weight loss. Thanks for any input.

| How light are you trying to get to? I have my 720D down to 7500, rarely does well in that class. About the time I think I'm going to abandon the class it pulls out a win and I keep going back. ha ha ha
It does the best in 8500.

| Mike - That's good information, but I don't believe those parts you are referring to are "frames". What is Deere's term for those parts? - J.P.

| The parts list shows the 70D frame as a AF3701R, which has 4 different casting #'s associated with it. A 720D shows AF2777R up to 7214899, which subs to the AF3701R which shows for S/N's above that. Sooooo....., it appears that they are interchangable, with the possibility that any particular casting # may be slightly different in weight than another. Chances are that you need to look elsewhere for weight savings. Mike
