Anyone ever see/hear of a YM2000 with OEM "wet brakes"?

Re: YM2000 brakes
I am quite sure there is no such critter. The YM 2000 was no longer made for at least 3 years before they started using wet brakes on the 02/20 series units. Now a YMG 2000 is a different model.

Someone swears they have one and have seen another one.

If he's that certain, then I'll bet it is some other tractor with YM2000 logos on it.

Decals are easily changed....ask him for the chassis serial number. That will tell the tale.

Re: YM2000 brakes
We took down a YM2000 for parts one time that had wet brakes... the stub axle seal was leaking and the whole brake housing was full of oil.

That's precisely what I told him, Aaron, but he says "no way".

Hi Norm,
The dry brakes have the new paint. Notice the adjuster. The wet brakes do not have the adjuster. They have a plug in that location. Both photos are of red 2cyl YM2000s.
