John Deere 445 Garden Tractor

This is a look at a John Deere 445 garden tractor. The 445 was the middle child of the second generation of John Deere's 400 series of garden tractors. This line of tractors replaced the older 400, 420, and 430 style garden tractors. Like the original 400 series tractors the 425, 445, and 455 were shaft driven hydrostatic tractors. These tractors had the ability to have 3 point hitch and rear PTO added to them which made them very versatile due to their size and maneuverability. The original 425 and 445 models came through with a plastic gear on the camshaft that was known to break. Kawasaki fixed this issue by replacing the plastic cam gear with a steel one. These tractors were also available in 4 wheel steer versions.
