Best JD parts site?

[JDgreen227]

I need to put some real money into my 1150 operating hour Deere 4210 this summer...and would welcome input from members here on what they feel are the best places to order JD parts online. Something that I really detest is having to pay wildly inflated shipping charges, and I would appreciate learning about sites that are reasonable in that regard. Thanks!!

Green Farm Parts: John Deere Parts Online Discount Store gets my vote. Outstanding service, fast shipping, and a small discount if your a member of the "other deere" forum.

This is a timely thread for me. I am now in no-mans land when it comes to Deere dealers. They closed all the dealers within a reasonable driving distance to me now, so any/all parts will have to be purchased on-line. Living where I do I buy most everything on-line so that part doesn't bother me. As the OP state, I work hard to find vendors that are at least reasonable with their shipping charges.

A discout would be nice also, but I hate the idea of having to join something somewhere for a discount. I have absolutely nothing to do with any kind of social media sites, and this sounds kind of similar to that.

Stan,it's just another forum just like TBN is, it's just dedicated to green tractors that's all.

Ahh - OK - I think I know what/where you mean - just have to scratch my memory some to remember - it's been a couple years since I looked there.

And I agree - I wish I knew of your hooks before I went and had mine welded on - bookmarked for future reference.

Edit - found the site while looking at your site!

Any ideas as where I may find a rear bagger for my new JD X304?
I just can't spend the $1000, the dealer wants.
No, I have not even used it yet, they just dropped it off at my home. They even put it in the shed for me. I wasn't home. Which was great due to it was raining. Great service!

Yep - I second the vote for GreenFarmParts. I buy EVERYTHING from them... oil, grease, tech manuals, bumpers, mulch kits, add-ons, etc. They have good prices and most things ship very quickly. Plus, you earn points with every purchase that can be used for a discount on future purchases.

Thanks for the endorsement. Positive feedback from our members here means everything. I feel better now that I have a good on-line vendor to work with in the future.

And that is EXACTLY why I created this thread...I hoped to learn about a good vendor, and even more hopefully to help other members here. That is the main reason I joined TBN and why I try to contribute--we ALL benefit when the members share information.

I am slowly putting a parts order together on the Green Farm Parts site. The site is very easy to navigate. I put my fuel filter number in the search box and it came back with nothing. Then I did the drill down menus and found it within 1 minute - here they use a replacement part number for that filter. The parts break down works really well. And just for fun, I priced my little spin on oil filter, then did a cross reference and priced the NAPA Gold equivelent (WIX filter). Wow - the NAPA filter was 55% more. I also like that they have very reasonable shipping for small orders, and free shipping for orders over $75. Perfect!

I am putting together some maintenance items to keep on hand like oil & fuels filters etc. I thought about having a spare mower deck belt on hand, but after pricing it I don't know - really expensive. I've owned quite a few Deere mowers and never had a deck belt failure. Now that I said that I probably jinxed myself - but it's kind of hard to swallow $79 for a part that I may never use......

Anyone else keep a spare deck belt on hand?

Oh, and by the way - thanks again for pointing me in the right direction for a parts site!

Did you use the SAVE7 code to get 7% off during the Memorial day weekend? I just ordered $250 in parts and filters and it made a dent in the total, plus the free shipping and no tax.

The JD MMM belts are well known for lasting a very long time, I would not keep one in stock for that price.

MY 4210 7-Iron deck has close to 750 operating hours on it and the OEM belt still looks good.

Oh - thank you for that! I haven't made my order yet - only priced out my list. Have to double check what I have in the barn and will take advantage of that discount today or tomorrow.

Ok - just as I thought also. I only bought one belt many years ago when I was refurbishing an old 332. I agree their belts last forever it seems. Worse case scenario is to get without for a couple days if one goes as I could have one shipped right away if needed.
