F17D

I posted this in general guess I should have done it here instead.

Looking for some parts if anyone is parting one out..
Front grill
left and right front quarter panels(right under the hood)
Hood
Have already talked with Hoye since there just up the road from me, they said they would have to order those parts from Japan, 6-8 weeks minimum.
On another note does anyone know the conversion to a john deere that the engine is? the frame is? Seams to run hot when tilling, but boxing, mowing seams fine, anythoughts?
Have had this tractor for +2 years what a little work horse it has been!

There is no JD conversion, and hot is hot, no matter what you are doing. There are probably only a handful of F17D's in the US, not likely to find a parts machine.

In reference to running hot. If the screen in front of the radiator is clogged clean it. If there is dust an other stuff in the radiator clean this out with both air gun and back fluch with water. If it still overheats check fanbelt if this is ok then have the radiator cleaned at a radiator shop.
