I have a 4010 which needs new battery boxes and side shields (by steering console). Any comments whether I should fork out the money (typically 2x as much) for a Deere part vs. an aftermarket part?


Thanks,

Hey Farmer Jack,
I have a 64 model 3020 and a 65 model 4020 and I can tell ya I'm kind of fed up with the boxes alltogether. I use the tractors to custom bale with so for now anyhow it don't matter to me about the originality of them. Anyhow, what I'm planning on doing is making me some battery trays like the 4000 has and making it easier to get to them. They will get dirtier but thats what a garden hose is for!! Just some thoughts, may just leave and deal with it?

Farmer Jack I have to agree with Gene about after market parts they never fit right or hold up as good as the originals and they stick out like a sore thumb use the the originals if at all possible you won't be sorry you did. Terry Clubb

do not buy the aftermarket side battery boxs they are real cheap an you can tell. they are flimsy an will not shut right. i tried them an took them back an bought the real ones from john deere. went right on with no problem. i am cheap so if i had to return an buy the john deere ones they were bad
