JD 4410 vs JD 4310

[mfreund]

I would go with #3. I have a 4310 with the 430 loader. It is a nice tractor but it has the loose loader mounts that plague the style. If you are not in a hurry, keep looking. I bought mine in Nov 2009 for $15,500-450 hrs with a 60" deck, 430 loader and a 655 tiller. I also looked for over a year for my "best buy".


Edit: I now have over 850 hrs and notice no difference it how it drives, mows or loader works. Don't let the hrs scare you off #1.

Bit off topic, but are your mounts (parts that bolt to the tractor's frame and the loader masts rest upon) loose?
If that's the case, you should dismount the loader and retorque the attaching bolts.

Or, are you writing about the masts being loose on the mounts?

My 430 loader mast is a bit loose on the left side. Supposedly, there's an adjustment for this, but I've never found it.
