John Deere 970

Deck III · May 8, 2009

Good afternoon Gentlemen,
I have a friend that is looking to sell his 1998-99 970 and was wondering what would be a fair price for the tractor. It has been shop kept, washed and waxed, with approx. 150 hrs. the majority of which were done bushhogging. It has a 6' bushhog that will go with the sale. Sorry no pictures but I would rate the tractor as in excellent condition. He is located in central Louisiana.

Try looking around Machine Finder to get an idea of what they are selling for.

Sale price is considerably different for a 870-970-1070 if they're 4x4 vs 2WD.

The 4x4 machine will have the synchro transmission vs the collar shift with a 2WD tractor (unless the previous owner optioned the tranny when new).

Also, if the tractor has either/both the mid-pto option and the mid-SCV's for a front-end loader. Those options will bring the price upward.

Great tractor - wish I still had mine..

Good luck.
