It's a very confused tractor. It has ROPS(greys don't)that could have been added by the last owner. The tractor also has the extremely deep ag (rice)tires on it(greys do have those). Looks like a good deal if everything works. The way I understand the 7100(U.S model) and 7001(grey) are almost identical.

Not all of the JD's are built in GA. A dealer told me that the 4100 and 790's are still built in Japan. We are part of a global economy. Very few things are totally Made in America.

How many HP? How big of garden? Yanmar grey market tractors offer the most quality per dollar. IMHO

Some have had good luck with these tractors...most have not. They tend to lack good fit and finish and somtimes have porous castings that always stay wet with oil. The electrical systems are usually a source of trouble and the parts when available are as much as the big three. You might consider a grey market Yanmar an older Big three model or a New Kioti. I bought a Yanmar and have been very pleased with it. You should be able to get a 24hp 4wd for around $5000.

You can use POR-15 it won't come off! It is perfect for this application. The only thing that effects it is sunlight and there isn't any of that under a mower deck.

How come no one has mentioned grey market Yanmar tractors?? They are a good value and can come equipped with or have loaders put on them. Yanmar has a parts supply house here in the states and the tractors are easy to work on. Yanmar has been building JD's compact diesel tractors since around 77. Same high quality and alot easier on the wallet. You can get good deals on used grey Yanmar tillers also.

Thats the first time I've ever heard the name WOODS and low cost in the same sentence. They are high quality but they sure ain't low cost!!

I believe the 2 stands for 2cyl and the 15 is 15hp at the pto. The tractor is a ym1500. Is it 4wd? They are noisy engines(always sound like a rod is knocking) but don't worry they are very tough.

The 790 should have no problem with a 6ft F-M. I have used one behind a 24hp Yanmar before with no problems. Rear discharge is better for all cutting but would really shine where you want to use it, the grass has less distance to travel. I've cut damp grass with mine and it still cuts good.

In reply to the problems with the rear diff...Yanmar only makes the 4100 for John Deere now all the others just use the Yanmar Engine(gotta protect my favorite brand). The 4200 up are made here in the good old USA....makes ya proud don't it!! I get to work first hand with this "new"(never thought I'd say that) Generation of workers...."Made in the USA" may be something that will be looked at as lesser quality in the future! Scary! I've noticed more and more businesses don't seem to care if the customer is happy or not either. Times are getting tougher though, maybe things will turn around.

Ouch my brain is beginning to ache from all this thinkin'. The thing I do know about horsepower and torque(be it gas or diesel) it sure is fun to see in action. It's tractor pullin' season!! Time to watch those cranked up diesels poke holes in the ozone layer(no offense to any treehuggers).
Hmmmm wonder if I could s/c the ole Yanmar??

Has anyone else ran a Hoe this size with one of the pumps from Northern?? Their smallest PTO pump is 11GPM the hoe only needs 4.0 to 5.0 GPM. It seems a like it would mess something up. Also will a 15 PTO hp tractor be able to run an 11GPM pump? If the pump was around 6 GPM I wouldn't be worried but 11...?? I'm not real familiar with Hydraulics characteristics(or spelling for that matter) This is the smallest GPM PTO pump I've seen anywhere, except the Hoe manufacturers.

Hello Rich, what you say about manufacturers, dealers, etc hits home. Why won't companies sell right to individuals(I understand the dealer thing but this is uncalled for). Like you said there are dealers that use the internet to their advantage then there are dealers that let us do the work. I want to buy a PTO pump for the backhoe I bought...Ive done all the research, called the distributer, have to give the dist the serial number so he can tell me the model I need etc. For all that I get to go to a dealer that has helped me not one bit, and pay him thru the nose for what I have done. If I was a dealer(I've thought about it) and someone comes to me with all the info etc. If all I had to do was make a phone call, I'd give the guy a good deal...then he would come back next time. I understand dealers don't like to hear this and there are some very good dealers represented on this board (One of which is Len Sheaffer I know others but some don't frequent this board). I believe dealers should get the stuff cheaper than if dists sold to individuals, I'm all for that but if I have to do the work of the dealer I ought to be able get a little of what the dealer would make. I believe in taking care of people who take care of me. Just my $.02....O.K. More like $20

You can probably get from Amerequip and Paint it Orange. There is another company(can't remember the name, they're on the web) that said they could be painted to order.

I don't have an answer for you but I would appreciate on from you. What is the Hydraulic spec on your tractor, mine was on the pump itself. I need to know GPM and PSI.
Thanks Jeff
