I’ve got a 12 foot moco with flail conditioners and the 4020 won’t hardly start it spinning. On paper it was supposed to (or so the salesman told me when I bought it new), but you can imagine the heated exchange when they delivered it and I hooked it to the 4020. It was supposed to go on that tractor because it was the only one without duals at the time. I know that’s three extra feet on mine but you might run shy of power in heavy hay. Those conditioner flails take some ponies. I do run it on my IH 886 when I have to. It does fine but I run a gear slower than when I put it on a larger tractor. The 4020 and the 886 are about the same power but I think the IH puts more to the pto.
We used to have a 966 and it is more powerful yet. We put about 12,000 hours on it before selling it and only replaced the starter. Darn good tractor, and that’s coming from someone who has both red and green machines.
With a 4020 you don’t have the transmission upgrade that a quad range gives you, so the IH pulls out ahead.

Today's Featured Article - My Ford Golden Jubilee - by Troy Estes. This article is about my '53 Ford Jubilee and a story that starts with taking the tractor to my brother's Starter/Alternator Rebuilding shop for a wiring fix. The generator was shot as well as all the wiring. I dropped off the tractor expecting a transformation from a 6 volt to a 12 volt system utilizing the original generator housing, and a total rewiring of the whole tractor. The front end center pin bushing was worn also so I ask that they replace it if they had time. Well, that’s wha
