YM 2210D front axle arm and top knuckle

I sent it to repair shop... and they lost the parts and everyone quit... so this is what I have left!!!
Wow, and double wow!

I would be over in the that shop in a heartbeat with the attitude of "We can do this the easy way, or the hard way; I am here to pick up my parts, and anything that looks like it might fit. I will return anything doesn't when I am done. Now!" Any friction, and I would have them in small claims court for a replacement front end. I think that is no way to treat you.

That's unforgivable in my book. Yes, stuff happens, but they didn't make it right for you.

Good luck!

All the best,

Peter

Ummm, that I'm pretty sure has a three digit hour meter. That could be 1100 2100, or turned back when it was "reconditioned" it was turned back. That tractor is 40ish years old I doubt it really

This is the first I've read of the 2210 being "rare." One of the reasons that I bought mine was that Hoye said it was one of the best Yanmars to buy and one of their favorites. Here's a link to their article on the best and worst models:


I've been happy with mine and have had it 6 years now. I've probably seen more threads on this forum on the 2210 than any model, but I don't suppose that really means anything. Good luck on finding the parts you need.

I thought I remembered what you said. I always thought it was a highly sought after model in that size and was very popular.

Fredricks is Yanmar !!!

Well, really close to being Yanmar. ;)

Fredricks is under a written agreement with Yanmar as the only legal gray restore facility in all of North America. Thus, the UTDA network of dealers offering those legal gray market tractors.

As for parts, I have my top 3 shown here. It's very rare for any of the 3 to be lacking.

Tom Fredricks is the only one licensed (by Yanmar)to use the name ''Yanmar'' (Other than Yanmar, of course).

Correct me if I'm wrong, but It is my understanding (By Tom) there is no more ''UTD'' ''per se'' As ''UTD'' was before his licensed agreement with Yanmar

I don't see ''UTD'' mentioned on his site any longer

Indeed he isn't using the UTDA any longer, yet the machines rebuilt get that Yanmar agreement 'approved' serial number ID plate as the UTDA info is there.

Tom does list why on his site the disbanding of the UTDA, because Yanmar legal also went after the UTDA dealers that were to be exempt per Tom's agreement. Thus the UTDA lost Little Miami Tractor and I think RCO. The UTDA was to be the umbrella of dealers selling Fredricks rebuilt machines per the Yanmar agreement. All of this can be found here: Our History — Fredricks Importing
It would be really nice to know the history saga since that was posted in 2013. It's like a cliff hanger having no ending.

As we are in 2021 of the post-c19 era; parts shortages, broken supply chains, ramping up hyper-inflation, with over 100K of Gray Market Yanmars in North America the future seems difficult to picture or navigate. Down south, most if not all of those states are c19 mandate exempt, unless you are a Federal office or agency there. So, Fredricks does have the ability to survive.

It's unknown how many YM machines are left still in Asia. It would be super for Fredricks to restore the RS, KE and AF compact models. In the EU, those are now the hot Gray market machines people are seeking. Tom isn't getting any younger either. ;)
