    We had 2 cabbed 4520s. That was an upgrade from our 4010 and 4020. In the 60's in Central Illinois, we were moving away from plowing to minimum tillage using a disk and chisel plow. These two tractors were real workhorses for us

    I have had one for the last 30 years. It was a main tractor for me, along with a 4430.
    I had the 4520's engine overhauled a couple of years back. I don't use it for much now but I still have the 5 btm plow it used to pull , it might make a few "plow days" in my retirement.

    A farmer that lived just a mile away from where I grew up had a 4520 with a 158 loader, man-o-man what a combination tractor and loader! He used that tractor for collecting round bales with a bale spear front and back, you could come off the field with 4 bales at a time and the tractor wouldn’t even mind!

    great video...I've always wanted to know the history on the 4520 bc I could never figure out how the 4620 fit into the picture...now I know! I hope you do a video on the 4320 & 4620....also the 6030....I could never understand why they kept that around after having put out Gen 2 30 series SGB's.

    Knew of a few 4520's around norther n Illinois. Had an uncle that had one around Macomb Il. Never thought of asking anyone if I could run one, I guess at the time was just too busy. Did have a fella that did have one that also ran my grandfather's 4320 say that it seemed the 4320 had more power for its size then the 4520. My grandfather had a 4320, and two 4020's, one a powershift and the other one was a synchro. My preference was always the 4020 powershift, was much handier around my grandfather's livestock farm. The 4320 worked well, went through three turbo's from I guess idling around doing spreading duty and sometimes running the Knight Big Auggie. I guess the 4320 seemed a little better for field work, If I had the chance to purchase today a new 1972 4020 powershift, or a new 1972 4320, I would choose the 4020 powershift every time. Good video, good information.

    The 4520 had a few faults no inter cooler ,bad design cbc injector pump and air cleaner and to me seemed gutless for its size and weight the 4020 really punched above its weight i comparison considering it was only a 90hp tractor i think the 4620 rectified most or all the 4520 problems . R

      4620 didn't solve any. I had a 4520 and my friend has a 4620, both gutless wonders. We used mine on a great plains drill billion cultipacker, and track eliminator, it had its hands full.
      Replaced the 4520 with a 190xt series 3, which played with the same load.
      Big clumsy and gutless.
