Anyone here know if the R-series Montanas, or all of them for that matter, are put together with SAE or Metric bolts, nuts, grease fittings, etc.? Being a Korean tractor, I would assume Metric, but you know what they say about assuming...

What's SAE? Just joking but I bet there hasn't been much use of SAE bolts on tractors for quite some time now.

Being a former GM technician, I have both sets of tools from those years that they couldn't make up their minds. Everything on the chassis started going metric, but the engines and drivtrain were still SAE.

You'll be needing some metric tools, that's for sure.
