We had 2 cabbed 4520s. That was an upgrade from our 4010 and 4020. In the 60's in Central Illinois, we were moving away from plowing to minimum tillage using a disk and chisel plow. These two tractors were real workhorses for us

My dad bought a 4320 brand new in 1972. What a beast it was.

I have had one for the last 30 years. It was a main tractor for me, along with a 4430. I had the 4520's engine overhauled a couple of years back. I don't use it for much now but I still have the 5 btm plow it used to pull , it might make a few "plow days" in my retirement.

great video...I've always wanted to know the history on the 4520 bc I could never figure out how the 4620 fit into the picture...now I know! I hope you do a video on the 4320 & 4620....also the 6030....I could never understand why they kept that around after having put out Gen 2 30 series SGB's.

Knew of a few 4520's around norther n Illinois. Had an uncle that had one around Macomb Il. Never thought of asking anyone if I could run one, I guess at the time was just too busy. Did have a fella that did have one that also ran my grandfather's 4320 say that it seemed the 4320 had more power for its size then the 4520. My grandfather had a 4320, and two 4020's, one a powershift and the other one was a synchro. My preference was always the 4020 powershift, was much handier around my grandfather's livestock farm. The 4320 worked well, went through three turbo's from I guess idling around doing spreading duty and sometimes running the Knight Big Auggie. I guess the 4320 seemed a little better for field work, If I had the chance to purchase today a new 1972 4020 powershift, or a new 1972 4320, I would choose the 4020 powershift every time. Good video, good information.

A farmer that lived just a mile away from where I grew up had a 4520 with a 158 loader, man-o-man what a combination tractor and loader! He used that tractor for collecting round bales with a bale spear front and back, you could come off the field with 4 bales at a time and the tractor wouldn’t even mind!

@RJ1999x 4 ай бұрын

Hope it was a powershift, because the synchro smash runs out of oil for loaders

I’ve got two models to suggest. One is the John Deere 2010 and the other is the John Deere 318. I’ve owned both and know the issues with the JD 2010 but would like to hear your thoughts on where Deere messed up. On the 318, I’ve just acquired one and am impressed thus far.

The 4520 had a few faults no inter cooler ,bad design cbc injector pump and air cleaner and to me seemed gutless for its size and weight the 4020 really punched above its weight i comparison considering it was only a 90hp tractor i think the 4620 rectified most or all the 4520 problems . R

@RJ1999x 4 ай бұрын

4620 didn't solve any. I had a 4520 and my friend has a 4620, both gutless wonders. We used mine on a great plains drill billion cultipacker, and track eliminator, it had its hands full. Replaced the 4520 with a 190xt series 3, which played with the same load. Big clumsy and gutless.
