Used Diesel PT-425

Did any of you see the used PT 425 diesel under the “Used” section on the Power Trac website? It looks like an amazing retrofit to me. It’s definitely not your common, sloppy, jury-rigged repair job.

I looked at the pictures and my machines and with mine, the seat rubs the front of the hood on extreme rough ground. I think they robbed a lot of seat travel/leg room for the cab clearance.

Yeah, that makes sense about the leg room being restricted. I just cannot get over how nice of a job this guy done with retro fitting a diesel motor in the 425.

The man also says that the couplers hook up inside the cab; this sounds interesting.

I think he means the QA is operated from inside the cab, not that the hoses connect inside the cab. Just like a standard PT.

Innovative in that it appears he located the fuel tank on the right rear saddle and the battery on the left rear.

I do wonder if his cab rubs the hydraulic tank on full articulation and oscillation, though. More pictures would verify.

But as others mentioned, boy that's a nice job!

It looks like such a custom job that it makes me wonder why he is selling after doing all that work?

All the chinese mini-ex machines with Kubota diesels....why in the world doesn't PT sell a 25hp factory diesel?
