Opendeckin, Bean Jr., nikmirbre and 5 others Thank this. -
Can still find plenty of parts for the 3406s and the 855s, dealer Or even some independent shops can usually get anything needed
Swine hauler, Deere hunter, Dino soar and 2 others Thank this. -
Thanks everone haven't yet have to buy anything other then filter and airbags just wanted to know if I should start looking for part that fail commonly on it
-
I posted about the same time but I have a 97 with a red head in it and my local KW dealer is in the process of getting me a quote on an inframe, parts are still cheap for them
Coffey Thanks this. -
I have no problem getting parts for my big cam Cummins.
I have a couple of Detroit Two Strokes that I have no problem getting parts for.
Don't even think twice about it.
Ironically I have heard that the newer Detroit the 14 liter apparently liner kits or some parts are scarce for some reason? How silly is that?
I have also heard that some parts for newer caterpillar engines like remanufactured heads and maybe even some liner kits are difficult to get for some reason. Who would think that newer engines parts would be scarce?
I have a 95 FLD that I have no problem getting parts for.
Old Iron old trucks no problem. -
I have a 1968 John Deere 140 lawn tractor. Still using it to cut grass and parts for the most part are still available from John Deere.
Newer lawn tractors are practically throw aways and parts are not always available.
