[AT] add on steps for a 4020 Deere

[Al Jones]

John, I put a set of steps very similar to that on dad's 4255 several
years back.  They are gen-u-wine JD but look pretty close to the set
you posted.  They are really nice,  the best part about them is the
built-in hand rail--the factory hand rail on the side of the hood is
only useful for getting on the tractor if you are 8' tall.  A friend
has a set on his 4640, they came from Shoup I believe and look exactly
like the pic you posted. His have the optional extra step on them so
it's even closer to the ground and to my knowledge he's never had an
issue.  I think you'll be pleased.

> Anybody ever used a set of add on steps on a Deere tractor? There is a 3 step set available from all the major aftermarket suppliers with a hand rail that will fit a 4020. Just wondering how well they work and if there are ground clearance issues, would be going on a tricycle front end machine. We already have an extra regular step on the tractor. We put that on about 15 years ago due to dad’s bad knee. Well, age is catching up with him, but yet he isn’t about to stop trying to do things so I am wondering how well these would work to help him get off and on the tractor easier. I don’t have time to fab something, I’ve seen these from $200-250 all over the net. Your thoughts.......
