Buster... the ride is about the same between the 3200 and the 3320. however weight distribution is better on the 3320 as it has the engine on the rear and tank behind the cab..... the 3320 is a hands down better sprayer than the 3200b.. in my opinion, Case was not a true competitor in the sprayer market until the 3320's and now 3330's came out. the 3200 b is actually just the patriot line that they bought out. now the 3200b is much more of a man of a sprayer than a 6500 or 6700... but when you go to comparing a 3200b to a deere 4700 or 4710. the deeres win out as they have more refined components than the old case patriots did. The only way to check the suspension is to jack up the axles and get the tires off the ground then check for wear on the pivot linkage pins and also side to side movement of the front wheels . look for slack in the steering cylinders and cylinder ends too. those trailing link suspensions must be greased every day... to avoid wearing throught the brass bushings and into the housings. once the bushings are gone the housings get wore and must be replaced which is very costly!

In my opinion... judging by the sprayers you have mentioned looking at... I would really try to find a 4710 Jd. it has a few improvements over the 4700 and larger wheels i believe. I am a case man... but hold a long fondness for the deere sprayers, they are a real good machine. Having said that the Case Ih 3320 and 3330 sprayers are awesome, the only true competion for deeres 4730 and 4830... in my opinion! actually I believe the New Cases outperform the new deeres.
