Hello,
I have a Beaver 370D which recently broke the front axle housing quite bad and the right axle shaft. The housing is totaled and the shaft, but everything else seems to be ok. The little tractor runs great and seemingly has no other issues, but I couldn't see putting out the money to fix it and ended up buying a new Mahindra 2415. But now I have the Beaver which I'm not going to put the 500-1000 dollars into fixing and need to figure out what the best way to sell it or get rid of it. Parting these tractors out seems like a bit of work but may yield the most money over the long run. Being on the west coast it doesn't seem like a huge market for the parts and partially running tractors like on the east coast. Any ideas or suggestions. The tractor is an 81 4X4 and has a front loader and rear blade and the PTO turns the right direction. Thanks for any help.
