Gentleman, I'm going to copy an urgent request from one of our soldiers at the front line in Afghanistan! I will include his email at end. Posted by: GunSlngr201 Original Content: Quote: Gentlemen, I am currently deployed forward (very forward) in Afghanistan. The team got on site three days...

Does anyone have an accurate and up to date list of John Deere tractors powered by Yanmar? This is what I have but know it isn't complete: 650, 750, 770, 870, 950, 955, 970, 990, 1250, 1450, 1650, 4010, 4110, 4115 Trying to keep my notes and information current and I'm sure I've got some...

Hi Folks, I am trying to verify if the JD790 production run was actually from 2000-2005? I've also recently read the next years lineup will include the 790 once again. Although certainly not infallible, tractordata.com also lists the JD790 manufactured dates from 2000 to 2005. My sources...

I've checked the archives and found several conversations that generalize paint, primers, tricks and tips (and oh..yeah guns too) but nothing about individuals with spectacular results (or failures). I'm asking for purely selfish reasons too. I touted the BPS paint line for a long while but...

Hello, and I hope this is the correct forum. Is anyone interested in a FREE 1981 AC 5020 (1/2) tractor? Well, less engine and front axle? Less than 600 hours. My salvage recycler guy has been eyeballing this thing for six months, and before I let it go, just thought I'd try one last time to...

O.K. Folks...I should probably know this, but only think it's true. Are all Yanmar engines #1 cylinder at the back (flywheel side) ? Everything I've read, worked on and seen, including a few 3 digit made for America Yanmars indicates the #1 cylinder at the rear. I have just been into a 3T75U...

I put this link in the Yanmar forum...but thought it really should be here, as it is not model or manufacturer specific. I think it's interesting enough for all people considering the purchase of a Grey Market Tractor. Seems to me that there's no shameless plug or specific model and more for...

Has anyone taken the new survey concerning grey market tractors and a proposed organization that supports the tractor and the buyer?? I found it very interesting as the survey highlights areas about safety equipment, support for buyers between dealers and the significance of the term "Grey...

Hey everyone, On my YM1610D - I was experiencing "White Smoke"...and it wasn't water. It was a hydraulic pump seal that blew and dumped 3+ quarts of hydraulic fluid in the crank case, hence the white smoke, as the tractor was trying to burn the combination of fluid, fuel and diluted engine...

Sorry, It really isn't a 210, but rather an Allis 5020 with a Toyosha 2 cylinder engine. Because of the similarities it was suggested I post here. This thing will not electrical start. This is an '80 model sat outside for over a year (muffler covered). At that time it stalled and would not...

Hello and help if you can?? A friend has ask me to help with his Allis Chalmers 5020 that won't start....and that is an understatement. A little history indicates that it stalled outside, in the elements and sat for a year. but does have an exhaust cap on the muffler. Since I have trailered it...

I own a '93 MF 1020 Standard in very good condition except the decals... Does anyone know where I can find a complete set of decals for this tractor?? And maybe the approximate costs? Thanks for any help. Regards, Mark

This is actually from last summer at Lake Conroe, TX. Heard a blurb on the news, but a buddy sent me these to put it into perspective. Been there a few times and fished, boating and swimming were part of my visit....now...hmmmm. Never heard if they caught the critter either. I'am thinking that...

I have been looking at this tractor for over two years. I have talked to neighbors, left messages taped to mailbox and cruised the strip trying to catch someone home. No success. Does anyone recognize the year, model?? And I know that the pictures are poor (telephoto lens through a 6' cyclone...

A friend has asked me about a Yanmar 4x4 model 17 that he found in the back of a JD dealership. He sent a email picture and looks like the typical square front end like 1601 or 1610D models, but I have no information to give him. So before he dives right in a spends $4900 (1500 hours) for the...

The one that got away. I have been looking at a British Leyland 6/42 3 cylinder diesel tractor, abandoned in a field, next to a double wide mobile. I have been looking at this tractor for the last 2 1/2 years. I have left notes on the front door....asked a neighbor, waited till night to see if...

I could have added this to Birdhunter1's post but now I am at wits end. I am asking if anyone has had any similar experience with a neighbor like this. I closed on a small piece of property last September '03. It was the neighborhood dumping grounds, and I spent the first 6 months cleaning...

Just asking the Kubota experts: Item #5137340940. 2003 L3130 FST 4X4 & FEL. $2900, Buy it now price. (55 hours) Sorry Kubota guys, just wanted to ask, this must be a miss print right? Seems like allot of tractor and I don't have a handle on what they go for, But I couldn't buy the wheels and...

Poor chap paid 10.500 to someone with a warranty for a FX24D and ran it less than an hour....toast, paid 650 more to R & R the cylinder head to find out scars in walls. Dealer will not do anything about it. I wished he had made his purchase here from one of the TBN member dealers, or at least...

It may not be appropriate to post here but since the majority of the tractors I have are Yanmar then I ask what do you think? Any time someone expresses an interest in a tractor (mine) I am confortable with all the aspects of a sale, including any parts that need to be found if future problems...

First - Thankyou jerryG, Almost sold and misrepresented my 1020 MF via my own ignorance. Paying too much attention to varifying #s and approx Years on all other models I own, The Massey was misrepresented to me as a 2000 year model from a dealer. As this was my own personal light run around...

I have had this gem for about a year. 17pto hp - 21 hp engine. <450hrs. 2000 yr model. B-Hog FEL and BB. Bought it at a dealership just as he was trading it in for a Valtra. Original owner used it for three years to maintain Horse ranch and stalls (diesel wheelbarrow). I baby this rig and only...

I think this falls between TBN suppliers; Buyers Beware and some retail math on a Yanmar YM 1500D (under 1000 Hrs.) I am sure most TBN people have seen this - But maybe for newer members and viewers in the tractor market. Ebay: No bashing intended for honest folks Could not identify the exact...

Have recieved calls emails and msgs from many and wanted to thank all of you for your thoughts and prayers. What you did for me was nothing compared to the shared responses and concerns to my wife, Teresa. I have friends and family that live close by, but she decided to confide in the TBN...

Good Morning, To all of the wonderful TBN guy's......Mark is out of ICU and in a room.....to each and everyone of you gentelmen that have called and personnely emailed me I just want to thank you from the bottm of my heart,,,,,,,,It has been a long 18 day's!!!! I don't know how much longer his...

I all you TBN guys, I hope you don't mind me posting this. Just got back from the hospital. Had a long talk with the Doctor and they can't believe how well he is doing. Please kept the prayers coming. Wife of Mark 777 (Teresa)

TBN guys.............Thank you from the bottom of my heart Wife of 777

It would seem that the situation concerning new tractor owners, having purchased imports from S.E. Asia has prompted many (very many) emails & PM's, and frankly I am at a loss for some of their questions. Most often I refer them to the parts suppliers who are well established-and do this by...

Is anyone familiar with this brand of loader? Advertised on a tractor on Ebay ...."Comes with new Accutech 3000 loader" Wondered what it looks like and where it's manufactured?

On my 1601D that I just completed, I found that the new 48" Howse brushhog was a little heavy. Even with short lift arms you could stand on the back and bounce the front end off the ground. I did not want to hang weight on the front end. I pulled the four 3/4" bolts off the tower (to the center...

Has anyone had any dealings, phone calls or been contacted by a company called LCI equipment? They have a website LCIequipment.com, but it appears to be down when I try and access it. Very curious. Talked to them yesterday about specific 4x4s that are completely reconditioned in Viet Nam...

Is it just me, or are these Yanmar tractor, trailer, blade and FEL packages way too cheap? It takes me 3 weeks on average to go thru one of my Yanmars to extensively recondition and paint. All parts, replaced / rebuilt or new even if slightly questionable. I have been a member here for only a...
