WOW, what a parts yard! I believe just the one address is the size of Fredricks yard for parts. Now you have something more local to you. With the machine shop, the rebuild the old engines on-site and sell them in working condition too. What an amazing outfit. Someone was looking for...

Then he has the YM2610D front axle. Yes, the YTOG has those manuals too for the Yanmar part numbers. Those are more popular.

@California have you been to this site? Plenty of Yanmar parts and complete reman engines for our vintage machines! There are enough details to add them to the YTOG parts supplier listings too as there are none listed for the west coast. (y) What a gem! Read about their Machine Shop...

WOW, what an awesome find! Thanks. I know others who are looking hard for Yanmar reman engines with no luck. I found two right off the search instantly and available.

Ah, you want the axle info. The topic thru me off saying steering. LOL I understand now the ARMS part of your post. Lets see what the YM2500/YM3000 front axle 2WD setup shows. Most of the time we place the p/n in a search engine and eBay or other places shows the parts. Th YTOG has a...

SWEET work. You can drop and scoop up the wood vs. this method.

A John Deere JD850 is really a Yanmar YM2500 in green paint. So anything you want for a YM2500 would work.

Yanmar has the C10W. Its the smallest riding version they make. Powered by a diesel tractor engine. Otherwise, you have to stand on the C08 So how can you fill the bucket? With an attached loader, C08+ These look like the old Tonka trucks I played with as a kid. LOL This is the...

Nope, coal ASH is not coal CINDERS.

For small sq-bales, 20Hp to 40hp tends to work well enough on flat fields. Cut, rake, bale does just fine. The only drawback is, it takes way longer vs a 40 to 8-Hp tractor. My Pa cut with a Ford 8N and sickle blade, then bar raked, and used an old reddish New Holland two digit model baler...

Hay prices are all over the map, and so is the quality too. Having someone hay bale your field is a good help in getting it cleaned a few times a year.

Those would be excellent for someone doing restoration work. Any idea the brand of tractors these are from? For me, my back would hurt after 30mins of tractor use.

FYI, the YTOG has manuals for free. Many in Japanese, some in English and several models in dual languages. We do accept donations in PDF or printed form. This is one huge reason why machines are still going strong today.

rScotty, Both in Japan and in Europe, there are listings for a YM267. Yet, nobody says what engine model is in the tractor other than it's a 3-cylinder. The YM257 & YM167 were made from 1984 up until 1991. I have much more documentation on the YM257. This is the present listing for the YM...

OK. there are dotted line clues out there. There is a YM257 with the 3T80U-HK engine. I'm leaning towards this model being the base and the YM267 is a model upgraded from it.

Yeah, the search tool here has an awful time with 3-letter words. Gets better with 4-letter, and very good with 5-letter or more.

Other than a blown engine, is the JD260 a complete machine. There is too much info here to determine the state it is in, the post is somewhat confusing. If the JD260 only needs an engine, there is a good chance people will buy it, and re-power with a Predator engine as the Kaw's as so-so...

Yanmar is known to reuse parts from the 1970s to present in their engines. The reason why Deere engines and full machines Yanmar made are still going today. Many of the parts are produced globally and tractors and other machines sold globally. Therefore, the machines are not one-of-a-kind...

The JD650 is a Yanmar made tractor. It's possible the Yanmar YM series SCUT machines sold in the USA have the same mower deck. You would only need to paint it yellow vs red or white if you found one. Mid-mount John Deere 160 deck

And it is not getting any better either. The VN recons are so badly mislabeled its not easy to know what a person really has. Makes part searching very difficult for everyone.

Len, it wasn't hard to determine. The size of the machine, color, hood shape and the telling side of the exhaust made it easy to distinguish as a D3200. Would you have parts for this model? The OP needs a new starter. Reply to his 1st posting in this thread. (y)

NAPA was in the class action lawsuit with their hydraulic fluid damaging machines. I wouldn't go there.

Compare other models on this sheet. It could narrow in on exactly what you have vs guessing. BTW, this is pinned at the top of this section in the forum too.

Not many Mitsubishi tractors had exhaust on the right side when seated on the tractor. And judging by the size of the machine with tires, it's a possible D3200 as the grill matches too. https://oba-shima.mito-city.com/2018/08/23/mitsubishi_tractor_d3200/

Its the old blue. R series or D series.

You have the new generation injector pump with all the emissions junk added to it. The Yanmar SA machines use the same engine too, the 3TNV80.

There are only 3 possible fluids to put in your YM180(D). Hygard = JDM J20C Yanmar TF500A = JDM J20C Kubota UDT original = JDM J20C Ashland-Valvoline makes JDM J20C Only buy brands that STATE, MEETS J20C and never never never 'compatible' nor 'recommended'.

We need the engine ID plate. This will tell what you really have. I'm very suspicious of the model ending in DT. The D means 4WD and the T turbo. There are no turbos on models less in the YM series of a YM2500. I've seen models ending in A, B, D, F, M, R, S, T and Z.

Did you verify what tractor model you have?

This has a YANMAR engine correct. Your best source of info should be the Yanmar section here on TBN or on the YTOG. There are ways to remedy the problem without extreme costs like an upper end engine rebuilt in the thousands of dollars.

If your machine is smaller and able to get onto smaller lots to do this work, then an item like the Deere Frontier RT30 will work nicely. And this unit can run with a diesel 25Hp and up machine.

Many sod companies use this type of machine. Gives excellent results. If you already have a rotary tiller, then simply add the packer on the back end.

For diesel engines, Deere and Yanmar state not to let the diesel engine idle for more than 10mins at a time in a given hour. Long idle times doesn't burn the fuel off properly. And then parked, it cools, leaving the build up even more. Seafoam and the Gumout products are both designed to...

I had a DIY project to add a hiller to my Yanmar, use DirectTV satellite dishes.

A PTO driven rotary tiller can in fact have hillers on their back end. In Asia, they do this. Here, very rarely. Here is a Mitsubishi model from the early 80s. Here is a Kubota demonstrating how these work. This model can move the hiller discs inwards or spin to lock into position. This...

Yet this one has the POWERSHIFT . . . as SRT :love: Full synchromesh transmission Synchronized Reverser Transmission (SRT) A full syncromesh transmission allows you to smoothly change direction and speed without gear noise, even when the tractor is still moving, just by shifting the...

Anyone changed tractor tires with the H-F tire changer? :unsure: It's bad when replacing a tractor tire inner tube on the front wheels costs $60+tax+disposal fees at your local tire shop or farm store. This is no balancing, no thrills rim. I can buy tubes just about anywhere. Dumb locus...

Personally, I would be geared shuttleshift. The reason being, it works on all terrains vs HST not so good on hills or slight slopes and HST with loaders you go really SLOW.

Well that number doesn't match anything.

Per the Fredricks UTDA agreement with Yanmar, they serialize the tractors on an ID plate riveted to the hood. I see the auction had S/N 2642. Are you saying you now own 2642 then. Here is mine, 3661 I now wonder even more. Your machine has a lower S/N than mine. Did Fredricks do a buy...

I would of not bought the machine if watching the video prior to sale. When the throttle was tapped a few times, thick black soot blew out. :oops: This tells me the engine was not gone over at all during the restore process. Just new paint, seat, hoses, radiator and exhaust pipe. If this...

:ROFLMAO: We still haven't figure those out yet. A WIP right now.

In the past week, I received 4 requests from people wanting this part. I thought plenty of people own or have access to 3D printers. Give me a PM and I'll see what I can do. My brother and I are working on a keychain as well. Member DeSoto made this one from two colors glued...

$3.59 here in IL, and $3.29 WI

Then it will decompose placing nutrients there later for grass to grow.

A vent is a good idea to bring back. I never did like Dutch Ovens and blankets.

toss out some weeds there. The grass in FL will over take the weeds in no time. Clover is a nice option to try. It will grow there.

Now the question is, will the prices for a 5-gallon plastic can drop from $32 back to $12 like they once were. NOT. :sneaky:

The big thanks really goes to Aaron the last owner of Hoye. He said he would be around, but . . . Not seen nor heard of him in a very long time.

I love a tractor story with a happy ending. :LOL:

Do you have the parts manual or the OPS manual? Either would be a help.

The oddity here? You bought a domestically sold tractor here. For me, I bought a restored 1981 Yanmar Gray Market machine. Even with the 1-yr warranty, nothing went wrong. Its been since 2014, 11 years ago since the purchase at a fraction of the cost of any new machine. You are not...
