John Deere 2027R Hitch and Rear Lift Notes
Rear lift capacity note
For implement matching, the John Deere 2027R should be judged from the 1,150 lb (522 kg) 3-point hitch lift capacity figure. That gives a better real-world read than horsepower alone
Hitch category note
The John Deere 2027R uses Category 1 hitch sizing in the captured data. Category mismatch is how people end up with implements that do not fit cleanly
PTO and weight context
The extra context for the John Deere 2027R is simple: rear PTO horsepower is 24.3 hp and operating weight is 1,865 lb (846 kg). That helps separate what it can lift from what it can actually run well
Rear implement matching
The John Deere 2027R hitch spec is useful because it helps judge whether attachments like box blade, small rotary cutter, tiller, ballast box, and rear blade are in the right size range
John Deere 2027R 3-Point Hitch FAQ
How much can the John Deere 2027R rear 3-point hitch lift?
The main rear-lift number captured for the John Deere 2027R is 1,150 lb (522 kg). Use that as the first-pass number for rear implements, not as a front-loader rating.
Is rear lift capacity always measured the same way?
No. For the John Deere 2027R, check whether the figure is measured at the hitch ends or 24 in / 610 mm behind the hitch. The behind-the-hitch number is usually more realistic.
Can the John Deere 2027R use any rear implement?
No. Start with the Category 1 hitch category, then check implement weight against the listed 1,150 lb (522 kg) 3-point hitch lift rating.
What rear implements can the John Deere 2027R lift?
Use the listed 1,150 lb (522 kg) 3-point hitch lift rating as the first filter for implements such as box blade, small rotary cutter, tiller, ballast box, and rear blade. Also check hitch category Category 1, rear PTO power 24.3 hp, and operating weight 1,865 lb (846 kg) before choosing the implement.
Is lift capacity enough to size implements for the John Deere 2027R?
No. The John Deere 2027R may list 1,150 lb (522 kg) of rear lift, but it also has 24.3 hp rear PTO power and 1,865 lb (846 kg) operating weight, which matter for powered and heavy implements.
Official information note
Mistakes do happen. Tractor hitch lift specs can change by year, market, tire setup, ballast, hitch option and measurement point. Please check the operator manual, build sheet and official deere.com website for official information before buying or lifting heavy implements.
