The John Deere 7020 tractor was designed and built specifically for pulling heavy loads. The production run on these tractors lasted 5 years from 1971 until 1975 when the John Deere 8430 tractor replaced it. The JD 7020 tractor was massively powerful for a tractor built back then. The engine powering it is a built by John Deere in house. This engine is a 6 cylinder model that uses an intercooled turbocharger and fires at a compression ratio of 15.7-to-1. The engine has a total displacement of 6.6 liters. Cooling an engine this size requires a large liquid cooling system that has the capacity to hold up to 30.3 liters of water. The engine uses both a pre cleaner and a dual element paper air filter to purify the air intake. The oil reservoir for the engine can hold up to 16.1 liters. The total power output from this engine is 146.2 hp.

The fuel tank that supplies the engine with diesel can hold up to 590.5 liters (156 US gallons) of diesel. The engine on the JD 7020 powers the hydraulic system which holds up to 83.3 liters (22 US gallons). This closed center hydraulic system has a valve flow rate of 98.4 liters per minute (26 US gallons per minute). The John Deere 7020 tractor is quite different from most tractors as it is built on an articulated 4X4 4WD chassis.

The is a choice of transmissions on the John Deere 7020 tractor. The first is Syncro Range with Hi and Lo settings, which gives the operator a total of 16 speeds going forwards and 4 for reversing, while the regular Syncro Range gearbox gives the operator 8 speeds traveling forwards and 2 for reverse.
