My '69 JD 2020 The canopy top is an old fridge door.

I'm going to file that for future use. Thanks for the tip !!

North Dakota---HUMBUG!! Snowed here again last night. I don't think spring will EVER come !!

I do, but I don't know how to download it. My wife, Jo, is in Minneapolis for another routine physical check because she's on a heart transplant list. She'll be home this weekend and I'll post a picture of this mod. Sorry, but it'll have to wait until then. Basically all I did was drill a hole...

bucket wheels As a matter of fact I did. I used my bucket this way all winter and it DID keep me from digging up my gravel driveway. I can still use the bucket as a "scraper" by tilting it further forward, but no digging with a level bucket because the wheels keep it about 1/2 inch off the ground.

Thanks ! Wow guys ! That sheds a whole new light on the problem. Thanks much !!

Last winter ,every time the temp dropped below 32 degrees, the left brake on my JD 2020 would lock up. This spring I changed the hydraulic fluid and filter. The hydro I drained out was a cream color, not dark brown like the new stuff, so I assumed it had water in it. Now six weeks later, I took...

Anyone know a good place to order 7.50 x 18 tires for my spreader? Thank you. Mike

My 2020 will drive for 50-60 feet, then the left brake locks up. It did this yesterday AM, I let it sit for about an hour, it was OK then the same thing happened. It does every time I use it. Neither brake pedal will depress, also. All this has happened since it got cold in ND, which, I'm not...

The owner's manual for my JD 2020 says the hydraulic system uses JD 303 hydraulic fluid or equivalent. I use ISO 32 in the dual 320 loader. Can I use that in the main hydraulic system in the tractor also ? Thanks, Mike

I have a JD 2020 with a Prince PTO pump running a Dual 320 loader. Do I need to put a filter in the return line? I just rebuilt the pump, refilled the reservoir and everything is working fine. Just wonder if I should add a filter. Thanks, Mike

Thanks Fred !!! Fred, I got exactly what I needed and printed out the owner's manual. Thanks a MILLION for the info !! Mike :thankyou2:

I have a Prince PTO hydraulic pump on my JD 2020 and I have to replace the seals because it's leaking. I'm not sure what kind of loader I have , but I think it's a Dual. The hydraulic hoses come out of the bottom of the left upright,which I assume is the reservoir and that upright has a fill...

These wheels I have are about the same size as hand-truck wheels- just a little wider. I think they're the front swivel wheels off a ZTR. Anyway, I'll let you know how this project turns out. Mike

I have 4 wheels and tires that are 11x4.00 air tires that somebody gave me that came off an old J.D. mower of some kind. Even if I have to weld a mounting bracket on the outside of the bucket ( I don't think I will have to) these will work great. I'll post a picture here when I get it finished...
