4250 open station

MKG · Mar 14, 2017

I have a JD 4250 open station with no rops. It came from the factory that way. What I would like to find out is how many 4250s were produced this way. Thanks

I almost bet you have the only one.

Never heard of one before. There's several 4455 open stations from Mexico around here.

You guys are wrong. JD did make some 50 series tractors with flat top fenders and they were not made just to be shipped to Mexico. I know of two JD 4050s that the owners bought new without a roll bar or four post cab.

I researched these 15 years ago and at that time JD thought there had been as many as 500-600 built. They were limited to JD 4050 and JD 4250s.

I'd be curious to know. Doug, call me and tell me what you know.

The area JD dealer had a new open station 4050 on the lot back in 1983. It seems to me that I have seen an open station 4250 around as well. Times were tough when the 50 series came out in the early 1980's so no doubt some customers would have wanted fairly stripped down versions to save money.

I just checked my auction notes and there was a 4250 open station Quad Range sold at auction for 31,000 dollars near Geneseo, NY from a couple of years ago. A fellow from Pennsylvania I talked to claims that all the row crops sans the 4850 were available as an open station tractor. I know some of the regional canning factories bought open station tractors to save money back then. They were popular for harvester and cart operations and supplanted the IH hydro's with the 15 speed PowerShift and center line MFWD.
