I purchased a Shibaura SD 2203 recently would like any information as to dealersor parts availability. I have been told this tractor is manufactured by Steiger in Japan and they also manufacture small Ford Tractors for the US. Which model ford tractor would this cross over to.

Here is what I have been able to find out so far after spending some time with a helpful local dealer. Mine has an engine which is the same unit as the H843 found on the Ford 1710 (stamped on the block of mine also). I picked up an I&T shop manual at my local Ford/New Holland store for the 1510, 1700, 1710, etc and many of the pictures for the 1710 match my tractor. So far I have replaced the water hoses, temp sender, oil filter, etc with parts cross referenced to the Ford and they fit perfectly. NAPA also had the filters.
Hope this helps.....let me know if you have any other questions and I will try my best to answer them.

I scanned the engine section my 1710 Parts Manual. There are a few, but very few, references to NA only parts or Asia or European models. There also are a few references to parts before or after a production change date in '85. As far as I know the NH repair and parts manuals are still available and contain more detail than the I&T manuals, but that might be important only if you were planning to do major repair work yourself.
For the most part, it looks pretty good, and it sounds like you've got a dealer and parts guy who can did out any differences should the need arise. I would expect there'd be some differences if an engine over-haul would be required. I also noticed one reference to conversion to U.S. thread but maybe that wasn't even on the engine. I really don't know if thread conversion meant conversion to SAE inches or from Japanese to US metric. The possibility of different thread standards might be something to keep in mind.
I believe the temp sensor is considered an electrical system rather than an engine part. If so, there's the possibility a fair bit of the electrical system may cross as well, which sounds even better.
