    I’ve been rebuilding my 93 425 w by/1800hrs over the winter. I replaced the plastic cam gear, governor,oil, and water pump gears. Along with new rings valve seals. I also lapped the valves for a fresh seat. Put it all together with new head gaskets and what not. Had it running but noticed an...

    Hi all. I have a 425 with a 3 point hitch. I’m looking at purchasing an X400 series, and I’m just curious if the 3 point hitch from the 425 will transfer over to the X4x5? Thanks!

    Hi all, It seems like the differential lock is stuck on my 1998 425. When I go to turn it it just sort of “drifts” and squeals all over the place and it seems as if the diff lock is stuck on. Any idea how to fix this?

    I recently tore down the trans axle in my 425 to do a re-seal. I had the hydro motor, hydro pump, and valve body off to replace gaskets as well. After re-assembly I have no forward or reverse movement, power steering or hydraulics. I can hear the pump when I try reverse but next to nothing...

    I'm helping a friend with their 425 which suffered major rabbit chew damage. Also, it seems to be missing its data plate, which I understand should be on the right side of the frame behind the front axle. From the radiator data, it appears to be a mid/late 90's model. I've found some wiring...

    Hello, this weekend I'm going to take a look at a 1996 425 with 600 hours. The guy is offering it for next to nothing because his wife wants the garage space back! It only comes with a 54 inch mower deck and I would be looking to pick up a snow blower for it at some point over the summer. My...

    My 445's transaxle is leaking an ounce or so hydraulic fluid a month while parked; this from the right side cover - and possibly the axle cover. Looking at Section 50 - Drive Train I cannot find references or listings for gaskets for these covers. Did Deere hide them somewhere else, or do these...

    First time poster here so go easy…. Have a first production year 425. Bought it used in good condition last year. Everything functioned properly and continued to do so until today when I attempted to install LED headlights. No issues with removal and install of Phinlion 3600 Lumens 1156 LED...

    Hi All, I've got a new to me 425 with ~890 hours. I do not believe it has had the cam gear replaced which is on my to-do this winter. In the mean time I'm trying to address a few issues that have cropped up but one of the biggest is a power loss. I have about an acre of relatively hilly yard...

    Anyone happen to know the real width of these decks with the deflector removed? My widest trailer is only 63" between the fenders, but I may need to transport a 455 with 60" deck for someone. A modern 60D deck (on a 1025R in this case) does fit with about an inch to spare, but in looking at...

    I just bought a curtis cab for my John Deere 425 but it didn't come with any mounts and they don't make them any more. I was wondering if anyone had any pictures of there's so I could get some ideas how to make them

    I have a 425 that is loud even with ear protection on it. The local JD repair shop said it is an exhaust manifold that needs replaced and wants $1500 (parts and labor) to fix this. 1) where are instructions on how to replace this part 2) where can I get a used or aftermarket part I have...

    OK the story goes like this. I am the new guy. I have been coming here to read for years and this is my first post. I was able to find, and buy an early model 425 with 556 hrs. It has a 54" tricycler deck and a 54" blade on a 4way front hitch. When we (dad) and I went to look at it. The guy...

    I have a '98 JD 425 that had the PLASTIC cam gear go out on it last fall. Over the winter I replaced the Cam gear with a new steel gear. I also replaced the rest of the plastic gears inside the engine with new ones (oil pump water pump and governer gears). I reassemble engine and put...

    Please help! I have a john Deere 425. It was running fine the night before the next day it won't start. It is very cold where we are so I thought that was the problem. It was turning over and sounded like it was going to start but nothing. I sprayed some starting fluid in the carburetor and it...
