Have a long 2610 block at a machine shop getting new cylinder liners installed. the liner OD is 106mm. as are all the liners I have found for that engine. after removing the original liners, the machinist says the new ones measure .009" inteference which seems high for cast block. anyone have a...

Like most Chinese tractor importers, we sell our product over a wide geographic area, thanks to the internet and forums like this. I am interested in a list of repair facilities and/or dealers who are willing and qualified to offer service on most brands of Chinese tractors. I have had phone...

Just wanted to mention that I will be at the AG Connect farm show in Kansas city this month from the 29th-31st. at the DFAM booth. We will be showing the new "G3" series tractor with 20HP and will also have the DF254 with new style R4 tires. both tractors are equipped with 4n1 buckets. Dong...

Aside from the intorduction of the new subcompact. We were debriefed on Kiotis Tier IV plans and expectations. Kioti has own engines for Tier Iv up to 73HP ready to go. But the price is going to go up a bunch, across the board, all MFG as Tier IV engines are used. As usual with EPA regs, there...

Just got the new KIOTI incentive programs for Jan/feb 2012. Some models will still have free loaders and big rebates but some that have had them up to now will not come Jan 1 2012. So if you are on the fence, go see your KIOTI dealer right now and get the best deal, especially if you are looking...

I HATE reading these stories. I'm sure no one on these boards would do something so stupid as give a toddler a ride while mowing or brush hogging. I've been on TBN about 8 years and I have read enough of these, and when this article showed up on my interenet "home page" it knocked the wind out...

New larger rebates up to $3500 depending on model or Free loaders on CK tractors (in place of prior rebates) 0 percent financing on most models (instead of rebate or free loader). If you got a quote on a KIOTI in the last 2 months and have not yet bought your tractor, you need to get your dealer...

I have recently learned that as of last tuesday, it is unlawful to sell any ATV or dirt bike marketed to riders under 12 years old as part of the Consumer Product Saftety imporvement act of 2008, also known as the "lead ban". This may be the unitentional result of our congress voting on bills...

The new programs from KIOTI include an extension of the free front end loader offer on all CK models. Of course this is in stead of any other rebates, low rates etc. 0 for 72 on DK45S models (I happen to have a DK45S cab at last years price available) but low rates out to 84 months. Lets get...

The free loader special on CK35 tractors has been extended! Kioti is also offering free loaders on CK20S models.

We just took a Case 275 in trade. a prior owner operated the tractor with missing loader mounting bolts and somehow cracked the crankcase. It has been welded, but still leaks oil. We are considering removing the engine and having it professionally welded, but it seems it would be a better fix...

I'll be at the Tulsa farm show this week showing a couple AgTrac tractors. It runs from Thursday the 6th through Saturday the 8th. If your in the area, stop by and say hi.

The Ozark Fall Farm show is going on this weekend in Springfiled Missouri. lots of good things to see there. AgTrac International is introducing our new line of compact tractors at this show. take a look if you get a chance

I don't have a current price guide for OPE and have a customer wanting to trade a year old GT2544 with hydrostat and 30 hours on it on a new Dixie Chopper. he said he gave a little over 3,000 for it when he bought it. What would be a fair retail price for such a unit? Many thanks!

Just got back from Wendell NC Kioti dealer meeting, wanted to be one the first here on TBN to congratulate Rick on being elected to the Dealer Council. I'm sure he, along with the rest of the members of the council, can be a great advocate for dealers and customers at Kioti. After meeting...

We have had a couple of the new 20 series in stock for a couple weeks, The performance is impressive with 30mph top speed, quicker off the line and even more low end pulling power (1200lb tow capacity 900 in the box) and still no need to have to shift gears to work or play. The same excellent...

Not to reopen a can of worms here. but since the thread was closed, I received an answer from the engine factory we will be using in 2007: The 2007 engines were certified using no.2 diesel, but ULSD will be better. This is for the ZN390 and ZN490 engines we are ordering now for 2007 tractors in...

I have heard that Mahindra will be offereing a Chinese tractor, this seems to be confirmed by the fact that the EPA now lists a Mahindra China engine as cerified. I know they bought the Jaingling plant that was (is?) making the Lenar tractor. Are they bringing this tractor to the USA under the...

What is the average annual usage for non-commercial owners of CUT tractors? I have heard some figures but need realistic numbers. Thanks

Hi All, Since so many of our customers visit this site, (and some of the other guys customers too) I thought this a good place to announce the expansion and relocation of our dealership. I beg patience from anyone trying to do business with us this week, as of today we are 50% moved. no email...

Looking for affordable (if there is such) used PTO dyno. anyone know where one is setting. I have seen some junk, but would like fully operational unit. any leads appreciated. thanks

I need some help. Have a customer with a B1750 and it has broken at the transmission. The bellhousing and torque tube on this tractor appear to be an aluminum housing. I need to give this guy an estimate, and because we are a Kioti dealer, the local Kubota guy has been less than excited about...

Just took another 8N on trade. This one seems to have black oil in the crankcase (not milky) and black oil in the radiator. I'm having a hard time guessing the cause since this is flathead and there would be little reason to have oil in the head, which rules out head gasket. Seems most...

We took a little John Deere 317 lawn tractor in trade, it has a leak in a hyd line leading to the front and now it won't go. The fluid in it seems to be red, (I thought it might supposed to be green!).Anyway I don't want to put the wrong stuff in. Can anyone recommend the best oil to use to...

I just added a page of pictures of the TS354C KAMA to our web page. This is a completely different tractor than the Jinma based units so this may be of interest to Chinese tractor enthusiasts and those just curious. KAMA TS354C pictures

This may seem like a commercial, but I havn't seen anyone talking about this here yet so I thought I'd start something. This is the new ATR Runabout from Land Pride. We just got this in and I'm not sure I want to sell it or keep it! The Runabout is a two seat side by side ATV that combines the...

HI, have a customer with a Satoh 650 with Mazda gas engine. needs water pump assy. Said they took it somewhere to be rebuilt and was told it couldn't be fixed and the pump is now gone. Anyone know a good source of parts or at least where a water pump might be hiding? They want to trade this...

Giere Mountaineer 4x4x4 mower Although I am mostly into Chinese tractors, a little mower with 4wheel drive and 4 wheel steering has caught my eye. Here in western Arkansas its a little hilly and not everyone needs a CUT! Has anyone seen or better yet own one of these? see it at...
