The Perfect Starter Tractor for Him! (JD 4020)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 сен 2024
- Planting Prep, and Spence bought a JD 4020! I bought my combine from Herb, and Herb just happened to have a JD 4020 that he was trying to sell. Spencer needed a tractor this spring (will explain in next video- tomorrow), so this worked out perfect! Going to try and keep the vids rolling this Spring. Thanks for watching!

Respect to Spencer for jumping in. I did the same a few years ago; surprisingly, with similar land and machinery. It is the journey, not the destination. A side note to Grant; always return borrowed equipment better than you receive it. Understand you addressed the missing shank (and I agree that you’ll find it), but don’t return my ripper with dirt and stalks still on it. Reward good neighbors, don’t take them for granted.
If you don't mind asking, do you need to start with a lot of money to afford all the equipment necessary? Or do farmers take insane loans and etc to pay later. Only asking because I know the tractors are very pricey and it confuses me how people can just jump in without having tons of money in the bank
@@bradyblackburn9062 it all depends where your at financially I would say
4020 is my starter tractor 2 years ago, doing hay and grain, but love my tractor! I have a lot of old equipment but it all still works! cant wait to see how that new farm goes!!!
Congrats on the second tractor any other big purchases happening this year.
congrats to your brother buy his first tractor 😁👍
Nice to see an update, been missing you guys 🚜
Thank you for this wholesome brother vlog I was wondering how spectacular Spencer was doing balancing school and farming and yt. With you. Bear hug him please. And it’s magnificent to see buch. This whole vlog made me emotionally happy. Great job my angels. Love you both a lot grant this part made me cry laughing 14:29 iv never heard you say that so iconic
4020s are a handy inexpensive loader tractor so probably a good find.
Mulch finisher would help for sure. If you prefer a field cultivator over a mulch finisher, most of the newer ones have better ground clearance and spacing between the shovels so you can get through more residue. I don’t think you could go wrong with either but definitely agree you will want one that doesn’t plug up as much as that one.
Nice tractor Spencer! 🚜
I wish I could time travel to see what the farm looks like in 10 years 😂
From our personal farm, we used to have field cultivators that would plug up. We have always ran a disk through the disk ripped stalks this helped break up aditional residue and flowed through our older field cultivators just fine

For your high residue issue try a chisel plough. Like a Canadian style one with only shanks and on 12 inch spacings. Something like a morris cp725 or something
Love your channel
Spencer got some land to start farming
what like 10 acres? 😆
@John kalel probably
Custom hay
With a 4020
@@LittleJohnFish probably. Considering it takes almost 6 million to start and purchase/lease enough land/equipment to even turn a profit.
You guys should definitely get a small cab tractor! Can't wait to see JD 8rs on this farm in the future and more will definitely be on the road with you
Great to see you getting some content again.
Keep the videos coming. It’s great to see a new farmer starting out
Custom hay coming to the channel soon. Good for Spencer
Spencer I’m proud of what you have planned!
Nice tractor! We have 3 at the farm! Along with several 20 series tractors!
Here’s Something to keep in mind for your planter if you want to go the variable rate route. I know it is expensive to do but you could do a max emerge 5e or exact emerge retro fit kit. Both of these options would utilize your current planter frame just bolt on new row units and all the extra wiring and equipment to run the electric drive row units.
Nice to see you back, great video as always 👍
Awesome video and nice 4020 Spencer!!
Btw that feild burning adds fertility to the ground.
You might want to replace those tile outlets with PVC, and put a rat guard in them. Muskrats and raccoons like to get in them and they chew through the tile when the get stuck and can’t back out. You will end up with a sink hole and clogged lateral.
congratulations !:) 4020 is my "starter" dream tractor in case I start my own farm in Canada or USA.:)
We've had a 4020 as long as I've lived. I have never seen one with a front loader though 😂😂
P.S. we also have a 4440 and I love that tractor!!
As far as marking your tile lines, you can utilize your mapping system as if you are creating a/b lines or outlining a field and then save to a separate file for future reference which then you can overlay onto current mapping.
Thanks for share your start farming journey over the last 2 years on RUclips for us to watch a see what it is like for a person to see what it is like to start a farming in real life after playing the farming simulator games
Great to see your farming videos starting back up 👍. Nice 4020 addition, are you planning on adding a 4-wheel drive any time soon? Maybe like an 8440..... Nice all around medium HP tractor.
Big respect to Spencer
We use a vertical tillage disk from Salford. Works great on residue.
It's interesting to see all the different takes out there of tillage. Around here in southern Ontario we usually moldboard plow the stalks, sometimes mowing them down with a batwing mower first, then the cultivator w/ rolling harrow behind makes quick work of it in the spring. It's a lot of time and money though. I think people are really starting to move away from the old moldboard plowing tradition. The cornstalks even bung up the plow sometimes.
Man I wish you uploaded more often, thanks for sharing
4020 was my first tractor and my top 3 favorite tractors.
This channel is only going to get better and better!
Eieroebesoefruturueir😢😊🎉
Been watching since the beginning of fs19. Seems crazy that this will be grants 3rd season farming
I love watching ur videos man keep up the great work
I've always wanted a 4020, it's my dream tractor.
I have had lots of experience with a fire out break and we lost a bobcat to it but we got a new kubota instead so I’m not gonna complain
If you wanna replace the cultivatur you should get an cultivating disk like we use in Europe after grian Harvest. It goes maby an 1,5´´ in the Ground and destroys the stalks, or what we do after Corn harvest is mulch auer fields and shred the stalks. hope that helps. greetings from Italy
Best advice on changing that still filters do one start the tractor and then do the other
Nice
Best workhorse semi classic starter tractor
Nice to see you back
That burn looked nice. I would have hooked disc, similar around edge of field. Double disc, or disc chisel. Let it burn up to that. I had a pasture neighbor burned. It helped grass. I wish I dared burn CRP. But stalk chopper does acceptable, safer.
Good to sèe u back
Look up a Kelly diamond Harrow. Definitely don’t see it being used much up north but here in the south most people have one. We use them for bean and rice stubble on our farm and they work great. Typically we just have to hit it w the Kelly diamond harrow and then follow with a McFarland harrow.
On bleeding your fuel system on that 8110, they always bled hard, what you want to do is clamp the fuel cooler lines. If you don't the fuel bypasses through the cooler instead of going through the filter.
Hey grant your doing so good for a beginning farmer
I love the 4020 classic tractor
I want to do the same thing grant and it is crazy how good you are doing
I guess that Spencer got an acreage with some farm and pasture land.
Love 4020s I have one
Enjoyed it Grant
4020 is the first tractor every one should own. I have 2.
We have our 8110 two wheel drive on the same field cultivator
Awsome spencer!!!!
I have a john deere 2120 and they run awesome! As long as you put the right fuel in and take good care of them they are bullet proof. I only paid 4k for a 7-10 k tractor (Canadian dollars)
Also as a sidenote they do not cold start well. You can install aftermarket glowplugs or use ether in cold weather. Look at the pinions and front axle as they do wear. If the hydralic ports don't work my uncle says that the princess auto ones work well (Canadian company but think they ship to the US)
Great video
I have seen a lot of farmers bush hog the stalks in the fall after harvest
Nice drone shots!
The 4020 is my favorite tractor
Great to see you back on. You said you took the afternoon off from work. From The Squad, or do you now have another job?
That’s what I was wondering, maybe he got a day job
Grant just get a 20’ or so disc for high residue grass and stalks, you should be able to find them cheap. Id rather have a field cultivator and disc rather than 1 mulch finisher/ soil finisher
Is Spencer going to make it a pulling tractor? That would be cool as heck
Ash makes a great fertiliser. So if you burned your fields every year, you'll have good fertile soil in about 2 years or so
Do not burn fields every year really bad for soil
@Broderick Anderson sorry I made a mistake there. Even few years or so would do
Sweet
Drove one as a kid
You didn’t lose any fertilizer it is better for it and you will get a better yield off of it
Lot of b roads in cumming. We farm in central Iowa too.
grant you should get a 30,40,50, or 55 series i feel like that would go good on your farm
4020 is a great tractor
Glad your out of hibernation !!
Needs some rops on that tractor or a little roll bar
You should take some of the shanks off of the feild cultivator so it won’t plug up so much
He bought a mulch finisher, he posted it on his insta story
I'm thinking you should have the disc out there now!!!
Heck yeah 🤟🏻
Nice vid grant ,when is American farming coming out?
Grant, not sure about you but I believe Spence is a movie star from being in a few movies! Which movies, Buzz Lightyear!😂LOL
4020 yoooooo
Try working the field on a angle, i wonder if that will help with the corn residue?
Also we run over the tile runs with the wings up on out cultivator after we got them done
Another great video. I'm patiently impatiently waiting for your game to come out. Basically ive "finished"every farming simulator game out there
Grant to not worry about anhydrous in the spring put it on in the fall that’s what we’ve done for years
Sadly in my area NH3 has gone away. Every place has sold applicators, and most will no longer sell it. 1 place within 30 miles plans to sell NH3.
Need to get another tractor and dual up the tractor
FARMING SEASON!
Come on Salford...Demo!
14:30 I thin this is the first time I’ve heard him swear
A chisel might do a better job of tilling up corn trash, I really like that 4020 its going to be a good tractor for him
What year is the 4020? It's definitely an early one because it doesn't have the side council. They are good tractors, I can tell you that much. We have 7 at our place, and 5 of them run and we still use them regularly. It's a good purchase and I hope it works out good for Spencer!
I’m supped
You should burn off those corn fields to help with the residue
Looks like now that treeline is gone, you can just make it one big field?
I guess getting hard on the farm if so your bid tractor ground size old old John Deere
you need to go to some more auctions maybe towards winter to get some more equipment so dont have to borrow
Bale corn stocks next year lol or buy a root rake
Hey I am restoring a 1966 John Deere 4020
Hey grant you should get a gleaner
You know what time it is?
Farming time
Hey Grant my cousin bought a 4020 it's a good haying tractor
