I have not ever really had trouble getting jd parts. They can be a lttle pricey. The only thing i could not get a hold of was some cast parts for a jd 14t baler. Had to get them from a salvage yard. A lot of them old tractors are collectors tractors, and have not heard of anybody having trouble getting parts. I did have to fly in a part for my baler probably 10 years or so back. Had hay down and weather man was predicting run. I literally payed dearly for that part, but it was in a warehouse someplace in illinois. But yeah, john deere had it and the dealer could track its shipment progress. He basically told me it was at kci at 4:30 in the morning and to head to dealer cause the part would be there in about 20 minutes. Got the part, fixed the baler amd went to work. Had a crew picking up bales as i was baling. Beat the thunderstorms by about an hour.
