Fredricks Imports in Alabama

Hoye Tractor in Texas

These 2 places would be your 1st go to as both have new and used OE parts. With the used parts, many come from low hour machines only brought from Japan, not Vietnam.

There is a place in IL called Schafers too. Not sure how much inventory they carry.

The YM155 has the 2TR13A engine that shares many parts with the Yanmar gray market machines. So, you are in good shape with the above dealers and refurbished equipment vendors.

If you need engine rebuilding and such, Weavers' and Stevens Tractor is a good place to start. Also, Southern Global is there too, but they are a bit pricey.

Over on the Yanmar GIO member site, our archives has folks who have swapped gears out and with photos. At the moment, we are moving from Yahoo Groups to GroupsIO. You will need a hydraulic press or find a local shop to work with in your area. Not really a hard job, just takes some time like most things do.

I have the service parts manual as well in PDF should you need that too.

When a tractor or vehicle sits for a long period of time, starters that have solenoids tend to stick. Take a wooden or soft plastic screw driver handle to tap around the solenoid or a not so destructive whack.

Another method is to put the tractor in neutral, engage the starter while something pushes the tractor back and forth in a rocking motion.

Solenoid starters are becoming a thing of the past. Offset Gear Reduction is the way to go to avoid this problem.

If the engine needs rings for the pistons, verify that the bottom pan to the engine can be removed without taking the engine off of the frame. Some of the Yanmar engines are easy to change out the rings, pistons, crank rods and bearings. Not sure about your 2-cly.

There is a guy in my area with a working YM2000 selling for $1000n CL right now. (Nashville area). The engine is great, the rear axle housing got cracked while bush-hogging.

Hey, I've always wanted a Yanmar cap to wear while out and about. This site has them at a good price. <br>

Most of these starters are Nippon-Denso or just Denso brands. A few are Mitsubishi brands. You are being sent-up the river with a 12-tooth vs. a 15-tooth gear for the starter. I would have refused that from the start.

Our starters for Ag use the old solenoid technology, thus they cost more. If you have the starter brand maker and can search their catalog for the same mounting and teeth, an OffSet Gear Reduction starter is the way to go. They are a bit stronger, last longer and cost about 35% less. My YM2610 starter was shown to be $254. Got it for $99 brand new with free shipping once I found the cross-reference to the newer technology starter.

Nippon-Denso, aka former Toyota parts division, makes starters for Industrial, Ag, and automotive. Thus, it's rather simple to fins starters locally at NAPA, AutoZone, etc for the Off Set Gear Reduction (OSGR) starters. Even the NAPA price would be better than any Ag supplier too.

Back in 1962, Chrysler was the first to mass produce this type of starter. Today, all modern vehicles use this over the old solenoid types pre-1980s.

This is a good point to prevent summer and fall moisture from freezing during the winter storage ...

"<B>Grease it up</B> � A lack of grease on moving parts of a tractor that sits for months can make it harder for those parts to get moving once again. Check your grease zerks for clogging, check for a lack of grease on moving parts, and check to make sure your wheel bearing are greased up and free of moisture."

"<B>Checking the fluids</B> � While this should be considered regular maintenance, it is particularly important when you are storing your tractor for the winter. If it is dirty, change it � if it is low, top it off. Hydraulic fluid is particularly important to check, as it can draw in moisture during storage because of condensation."

"<B>Clean the filters</B> � Clogged air filters are always an issue in the spring time. While you�ll want to check it again before starting up in the spring, a thorough cleaning or a replacement prior to storage can help you be prepared and lessen the workload later."

Koyker loaders work on Yanmars as well. That's the brand Fredricks uses.

Either one should bolt up and work. :)

Jump over to the Yahoo Yanmar support group. There is a cross-reference listing that shows what Yanmars are John Deere machines or use the same engines. Those would be the best to resell since parts and things are interchangeable. Also, if you want, contact Fredricks to see if being part of their dealer network is a smarter method. Being in BG, KY offers a smart reson to join Fredricks as they have family up that way. ;)

When you are at NAPA, just ask for John Deere 850 air, oil and hydraulic filters. The JD850, YM2500 and YM2610 all have the 3T80 engine. The YM2500 is the same thing as a JD850 and the YM2610 is the automatic version. :)

As of 2014/15, I had purchased a wonderful Yanmar YM2610. It's basically the John Deere 850 with automatic. Prior to this, I had owned a JD 850, but the previous owner was extremely neglectful. Thus it died. In the process, I had found all kinds of info for these JD and Yanmars of yesterday years. <br>
<br>
If you live in the southeast USA, Fredricks does have a good dealer network to support you. Their 1-year warranty is another plus! <br>
<br>
Other than that, there are several areas of support for the Yanmars. All within a days' drive and back or in less time for most of the US population. So, I would concur that support isn't within close reach living in the mid-west. <br>

This list isn't everything. There are still others out there as gray tractor dealers, parts, service, and add-ons. Don't forget your local John Deere Ag parts counter and service too. Yanmar made tractors for JD from 1979 to 2007. Many parts are cross referenced IF you know the Yanmar engine in the JD tractor. I've been building a long list of the JD to Yanmar data and hoping to post it shortly in the Yahoo Yanmar Groups file section. In a few instances some of the Yanmars were painted JD green without any major changes and sold here in the USA as John Deeres'.

This is an old thread, but there really wasn't a solution yet offered. <br>
<br>
There are less than a handful of places to get good complete running engines for the JD/Yanmar machines. Fredricks Import as of 2014/15 gets engines very frequently, restores them fully for restored Yanmar tractors. It is resonable to ask about a crated running engine or for them to just redo your machine. They are in AL with a 5-dealer network across the southeast. 1-year warranty too. <br>
<br>
On another tractor forum, there is an Ag parts group that has access to JD/Yanmar salvage engines and rebuilds them a refurbished crated engines. I think the company has the word "cold" in the title. Like coldwater tractor parts or something of that sort. <br>
<br>
In western KY, there is the largest tractor salvage yard in North America for Asian Import tractors. That is all they do. <br>
<br>
As for JD and Yanmar engine parts or engine rebuilds or restoration projects, I had crated a long list, to help. It's not 100% complete, but as of 2014/15, it's current for this time. <br>
