YTM larger hp tractors??

[Alberta Haymaker]

What's the verdict on them now they have been around a number of years. Local dealer has the 105hp model they are selling.

Should read TYM

I haven't seen many of them in the USA but they are quite popular in Mexico, Peru and parts of Northern and central Africa where I have worked. Of course I couldn't tell you off the reliability of them, only that I have seen quite a few of them around the World. They should be much better than your Belarus.

Did you mean tym tractors?

 

[Gary Fowler]

I took for granted that he interposed the letters and meant TYM since I never heard of a YTM.

 

[Alberta Haymaker]

Yes typo I missed and now it won't let me correct it.

 

[Alberta Haymaker]

Well the Belarus lacks refinement and options but it works and importantly parts are readily available.

This is my concern with these Korean tractors. Look okay but years ago there was complaints on parts support.

 

[AchingBack]

I can't find any reviews or feed back from owners. Just for your information:
These Mahindra models are made by TYM View All Tractors | Mahindra
mFORCE 105P | Mahindra
mFORCE 105S | Mahindra

Can't speak for TYM, but I've owned a Korean made Kioti DK for 14 years and parts have been a non issue.

There is a TYM section here, take a look at the posts. I have had one for almost 6 years with very little trouble. Recently broke a cable on my joystick but the dealer had it in stock. I have no info on the full size tractors, mine is 35hp.

 

[Alberta Haymaker]

Okay good to know they have a parts system established as with any brand the first few years there seems to be issues. The larger ones you don't see too much info on in th forums. At least from the searches did.

I think that there are a couple of people who bought the Mahindra mForce version on this site. I think I remember seeing a thread on it s year or two ago.

I bought a 2007 Korean tractor. In about 2009 I was mowing with a drum mower and hit a pile of concrete chunks and took out my right cab door. Within the week I had a new one UPS delivered to my house which my sweetie and I installed. Warehouse in Plainview, TX. had 7 in stock.

This Mahindra 2538 has a TYM chassis and a Mahindra engine. For what it's worth I was able get a cruise control module and different suspension seat shipped to the dealer in one business day after we purchased it. Mahindra has loads of these types of TYM chassis tractors sitting down at the main HQ/Distribution center off Jackrabbit Road in Houston. I drooled over all of them while looking around and talking to the Mahindra reps. My suggestion would be to check out the Mahindra version of your tractor, (assuming there might be a dealer nearby) Here is a link. mFORCE 105S | Mahindra It's probably the same offering, but with Mahindra's mCRD engine and perhaps a few other touches. The TYM branded versions come with Doosan and Yanmar engines I believe. I wonder if TYM and Mahindra have an agreement to stock/support one another's dealers with non engine parts?

 

[Alberta Haymaker]

Yes I noticed between these over 90hp Korean - Kioti, LS, tym, and Mahindra. They all have similar features that I wonder what the deal is over there. I thought the tym had a bit more hp.

Oh yeah I sure like that bucket grapple you got there! Is that for rocks and roots? I fixed up one of my buckets a couple weeks ago putting on heavier bucket and grapple teeth for picking up root piles on some land I'm clearing

That looks like a solid setup you have for getting under root piles. The root grapple I picked up is from Everything Attachments. Chose it for design, strength, and low weight. Single Lid Root Grapple It is the 60", single lid version. Primary use will be for root grubbing, brush removal, and deadfall cleanup. Currently it has only proven itself with moving implements, but it's a start. Are you near Edmonton, or Calgary? I was raised in Fort St. John BC and moved south for college and work. I miss the BC/Alberta Summers as well as snowmobiling this time of the year.

I made this 3pt hitch ripper tool for the roots. I have a cat coming into do the main work of clearing the brush this winter. Then I'll work at it in the spring. That bucket is pretty "tired" but I welded up pretty good so it should work. Had one my of my son's through some paint on. Located by Edmonton.
