    2012 JD 323D, When freezing, loader arms go up but not down. Moisture in loader control valve?

    After 10 mins, when everything has warmed up, the loader arms can go back down. Until that point there is zero movement in the foot control to lower it. Must be moisture somewhere right? Where should I look at opening it up and draining...

    Large frame or mid frame: John Deere 333P or 325G (maybe a P in the future update) OR anything else

    I am looking to purchase a CTL for our 2025 season and I have ran a 333G multiple times on demo. I like the update with the P series Deere has made to large frame CTLs but I am concerned about maintenance. The 325G is really a better size machine for our company because I can use it on almost...

    John Deere 410E

    Looking for some answers regarding a 1997 John Deere 410E….. There is a transmission fluid leak at the torque converter. It is a pretty steady leak, but the machine has good power, shifts fine, and is sound all around….. Is this simply the replacement of a seal or two? Is it a big task to pull...

    Hello everyone. I've got a 2005 Deere 750J with 10k hours. Dozer was working great until the very end of this last pond job I had it on. Started veering to the right, then would compensate by speeding the right track up to tracks straight. It will continue this process indefinitely. I tried...

    deere 35g vs 50g wedge coupler ears

    Hello, could anyone confirm whether the quick attach ears are the same on the 35g vs 50g? I've found quite a few sellers of the quick attach ears for the 50g at a cheaper price than others listed for the 35g. Planning on retrofitting some buckets to fit a 35g coupler. Thanks, John

    Anybody ever try to fix cavitation holes in sleeves?

    Hi folks, I've worked on 4 or 5 of these old 300/400 series mechanical Deeres over the years and every one of em has failed for the same reason; the user put the wrong coolant in, and the cylinder liners cavitated. For the record, it's not a design flaw of the machine. I'm quite fond of these...

    Hello everyone, Looking for those who are more experience with this sort of thing than I am. My 1963 Case 530 Loader/Backhoe just pushed the seal out of the hydraulic pump: typically a strong indication of a worn out pump as I understand it. Can anybody verify that? Now of course this pump was...

    Cat 345 vs deere 450

    I'm looking at getting a CAT 345B II or a deere 450c lc. Cat has 13k hrs and deere has 15k and are the same price. Which one is better? What do I look for in these machines? I'm used to deere equipment but I think I like a cat. It's going to be used in a pit for moving overburden and loading trucks.
