howdy all
I have been looking around in the old post on the topic of adding a front end loader to a 4020- but am missing something.
my 1970 doesn't seem to have a location by the breaks to source the hydraulic oil from. I have a manual shift model and have the ported filter cover ready for my return.
history- just for fun. I rescued my 4020 from a old TX farmer- it had been sitting outside his barn for about 10 years. The day I brought it home we had to cut small pine trees out of the way and lift the old girl out with the use of another tractor.
So far I have replaced all fluids (a couple of times) filters, sump screen, paint, seat, decals, fuel pump and injectors, water pump.. fuel gauge and sender... batteries and boxes ... probably a few other things. She is running and I was able to cut and rake hay last season with her.
NOW just to be complicated I found a old 46a loader without bucket, or brackets and decided to make it work. Fabricated a bucket and bracket (quick release style) and mounting brackets for the back axle and front. It seems to fit well and with bright green paint looks like it belongs.
any help on finding the best spot to source the juice from would be appreciated.
Thanks!
