I paid for a lot of educations dueto ignorance ,.. a guy I knew went to my church and was fired or let go by the jd dealer over understandable personality issues he told me,, this was back in 1992, I could not get along with snaz the dealer either, because my blood was not green when I hurt myself , LOl,,rite at that time , unbeknowest to me,i needed new brakes on my 4020 ,, but the immediate problem was dirty watery hydraulic oil , and shakey lift and steering , and sluggish shifting,,. all indicated by the pressure guage that was always below the safe zone , new filters and oil changes worked for a month . then the problem was back again ,after church I mentioned theproblem to the out of work mechanicwho was now freelancing out of his garage , doing anything that needed fixing ,.. he was confident he knew how he could fix my 4020 ,.so I took my deere to him ,. week later he says shes ready ,. put entire tranny clutch pak in the powershift ,said he cleaned a lot of fiber trash out of tranny from the worn out gear paks , and he needed 1880 bux , ouch , but its fixt! , Rite
! , so I paid the man, I lookt at the clutch tranny gears pak , and all lookt really good,,.and I have the parts in a plastic bag on the shelf today , within a couple weeks , same problem jerky steering and remotes vwry weak, low hydro pressure , so I call the guy,. and he says its probably the remote module needing rebuilt, or maybe the front hydro pump ,,.he ended up putting a new seal kit in both , and telling me there was a lot of trash in the pump and he flush cleaned the lines ,.675 bux ,. more new oil and filters ,month later , the deere was back to square one again , no hydro pressure,. the brakes worked great thru this entire ordeal ,. now my church pal was working for the massey dealer,.i stopt in to see my deere folx a month after snazz's funeral,Sherril ,bak in the shop , had time to chat and had always been good to me, after heareing themost recent history ,and knowing the 4020 since it had 2 hours on the motor,,. he said ," I bet it is the brakes need replacing , don't think that was ever done on that 4020 as far asi know " ,I asked do the trumpets really need to come off to do that work , "Yep No other way around it, aint too bad a job, with the rite jacks and jibs that the shop had, so , Sherrill did the work and I sunk another 2400 bux , which included a new hydro pump ( the rebuilt one chronically leaked )and a steering motor rebuild and new brakepedal seals ,,. that durn hydro pump workt a week and sprung a bad leak , deer and Sherrill fixt it under warranty , week later lifting the baler tailgate , started leaking again , this time they brought out a brand new pump , but it leaked on startup ,EXASPERATION .dang this dear 4020 was starting to get on everyones nerves beside mine ,.sherrill wanted the 4020 bak in his shop,so we hauled it there,,turned out it was a simple o ring that was overtightened from factory ,. only way you could see i t was to have the fuel tank and front stript off,. thankfully warranty took care of all expense except the new trans oils .. finally I have a tractor
