I have recently purchased a 1971 JD4020D w/Hiniker Cab. I want to remove cab and replace w/fenders and rollover canopy. Is there any book or manual that I can reference to assist me w/this project?

Yeah.. Like cab or not. I have a JD 71 4000 it has a year around cab, my dad put that on when the cab come out as new cab. how ever I wish to take it off but choose not to. still use this tractor out in snow (cold!!) and sure does help in summer time it has working A/C air. heat too. you may need something to pick cab up off tractor other loader tractor or something high to lif.

I have a year around cab on my 3020 and I can hardly wait to go back to fenders. Put in on in a move to have comfort and never did finish hooking things up on it, did that in 99. Makes them a real bi-ch to work on if you have to do anything around the operators station. I have a set of fenders located from a friend off of a 4010 that I will probably trade hay for. There is not too much too taking one off, I had to to get this one. Just take your time and keep an eye out for things that are connected like the others have said. Good luck!

I put a Hiniker cab on my 1966 4020 this summer. My cab is 900 there is also a 1300
I have the parts book for the 900 and 1300

I'm sure yours had a heater. You will have to remove the hoses from the engine (drain the cooling system) If yours had Air, i really cant help you with that. On the 900 the frount mounting brackets bolt on by the clutch housing, these bolts must be tightened to 300 ft-lbs. The frount mounting brackets of the 1300 are different then the 300. I'm not sure if they bolt on by the clutch housing.

You will also have to unhook the electrical system. Most of the wires are by the back axle. There may be one wire in the frount.

There were several different kinds of cabs available to fit the New Generation tractors. Hiniker, Egging, Stolper, Hinson and others. There's really not too much to removing them, although it can be time consuming. If the cab has air, heat or both, you will have to unhook the hoses and wiring. The batteries might also be mounted on the cab, so check that as well. I don't really see anything in the early 4020 manual pertaining to cabs, and the late 4020 book is out in the shop somewhere. You may have to remove some filler plates and the like, but basically the cab will probably lift off pretty easily. I would start with a good wash job and then go over the tractor and take note of anything that looks like it could cause you problems. Take your time and watch for things that will hang you up, and you'll probably be okay. Maybe someone out there has a manual for the cab that they can get you copies of. There might be directions on removal and installation. You might also be able to trade your cab for fenders, a canopy or other parts you need for the installation.

I don't know if they are worth anything, given the number of ones around here laying in the weeds. They weren't exactly known for being quiet or dust-proof when they were new, much less 30+ years down the road.

You're probably right, but every once in a while you'll see an ad for someone looking for a cab. I would personally have an open-station than any of those cabs, although they would probably make a good deer stand, lol. Or is that Deere stand?
