Introducing the revolutionary
John Deere AirCushion tracks
suspension system. It’s the
ultimate in track tractor suspension
technology. Best of all, it’s standard
on all 9030T Series Track Tractors.
As the tractor passes over
bumps, or rough spots, trackframe
components are isolated from the
vehicle frame by the AirCushion
suspension system.
You get 13.7 inches of total
suspension travel at the front idler
wheels. As a result you’ll enjoy su-
preme operator comfort, while
being able to work and transport at
higher speeds. This helps you finish
your work in less time.
But that’s not all. The AirCushion
suspension combined with the
9030T’s longer wheelbase, also
helps limit wear and tear on the
tractor, improves reliability, and
puts more power to the ground.
It’s exclusive John Deere
suspension technology that
improves operator comfort,
boosts productivity, and helps
keep repair costs low.
