JD Rotary Tiller - Jack Stand Bent/Issue

rmonio · May 5, 2018

My JD665 Rotary Tiller’s rear Jack stand got bent last evening when I went to put it away.

Not the stand portion, but the plate that attaches to the tiller.

The plate must be soft metal, unfortunately. Does JD make a replacement attachment for this or should I attempt to bend it back myself? Just curious... Thanks!

JOHN DEERE BRACKET PART # LVU1498 | eBay

I see that part available unpainted on Ebay apparently as an aftermarket part. I guessing that there is a high demand for the part as I know, from experience, it is easy to forget to raise the support leg or tongue jack on any piece of equipment.

I've got a 655 and it has two of those stands, front and back, on the same side. Both are unpainted (that includes the bracket).

Thanks team. I did end up ordering the bracket - it was reasonable - and replaced it. I tried bending the other one back but was not successful. A new one was only $35 from the dealer.

I知 sorry, but I did not see your responses come to me via email - so I didn稚 get back here sooner.

Thanks again for all of your help!
