John Deere 4960

The John Deere 4960 is a row-crop tractor that was part of the 4060 series. This two-wheel drive (4x2) tractor was manufactured by John Deere at their Waterloo, Iowa plant between 1992 and 1994. It features a John Deere turbocharged and aftercooled diesel engine with liquid cooling, six cylinders, and a displacement of 466 cubic inches, producing 200 horsepower at 2200 RPM. The tractor is equipped with a Sound-Gard cab and a closed center hydraulic system. It has a full power shift transmission providing 15 forward and 4 reverse gears. Power steering and differential hydraulic wet disc brakes are standard for this model, enhancing maneuverability and safety. The tractor could also be fitted with the John Deere 840 loader for additional functional capabilities. While the chassis is listed as 4x2, some conflicting data hints at the possibility of a 4WD variant, which isn't clearly reconciled in provided specifications.
