My new used Yanmar 169D

[Johndeere3720]

Noticed that Hoye was gone, it’s a real bummer since they were one of the best resources around. This’ll be a slow burn project, currently going through the 317 skidsteer, a 4x2 gator, a full rebuild on a John Deere 4200 compact, and now the Yanmar plus occasionally a Deere 330 garden tractor. Needless to say I’ve got plenty to fix.

The wheel Disp. Looks strange. the Front compared to the Rear. The front 4wd.replaced at sometime? The Rear looks correct to the Fender.

You are still young. Just making the time and desire to do it is the real motivation to getting the repairs done.

BTW, your phone emoji's do not come thru to the forum. It is printed in gibberish.

Fortunately I am still young, although I’m in that stage where time goes a little faster each day/month/year.

What’s interesting is I was just typing numbers but for some reason it just posts as emojis. I’ll have to see if it does it on my PC.

edit, looks like the PC fixed it.

Rear wheels are correct, fronts are mismatched size. Planning to get the wheels powder coated and then getting the correct matching set for the front.

I realize it’s Christmas but I had a chance to get the Yanmar washed and got out the buffer to do a spot check and see if I could get the shine back. It’s looking promising although it’ll certainly take some work to get there.

You would need to remove the hood, then remove the grill. Clean up the dings, some surface rust nicks to wire wheel out, primer and then repaint. Order some good looking new decals and it would be very sharp looking like new again.

The fenders are not tricky at all to restore. Just some TLC is all it needs.

As for the tire rims, those take much more effort.
