I, personally, think one of the biggest considerations with modern tractors should be the dealer's support after the sale. These newer tractors are getting MUCH harder to work on or even troubleshoot yourself. It is important to make sure there is going to be an established dealer within...

I have looked through some of your other posts and none of the pictures that you have posted of your tractor match a YM1610D. Are you certain it is not a YM1602D? https://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/threads/how-can-i-correct-this-toe-in-of-the-front-axle-wheels-on-my-yanmar-1610dt.570382/ Aaron

The YM1900 shares almost all of the same PTO parts as the YM2000 "green" style. The "red" style YM2000 has some differences but many of the parts will still interchange either as an assembly or individually. Aaron

Yea I think the YM1602 might be the only "YM" series to use that style brake rod boot. The YM1610 has dry brakes so there is no boot. Aaron

Surprisingly the 186D uses a completely different 4wd axle design. I don't think they share a single part. Aaron

Unfortunately that gear is only used on the YM1510D. I really don't think that one looks like it would cause the problem you described though. If it were me, and I could not find a replacement, I would use it. Just file down the rough/thin edges so they didn't keep chipping off, make sure the...

I mow around 10 acres of pasture. I started with a gear drive Mahindra 5010 and traded for a HST MX5800 Kubota and, in my opinion the HST makes mowing so much nicer. You have infinite travel speeds so you can go exactly as fast as comfortable depending on the ground and obstacles. The gear drive...

Are you sure the tractor actually sold in that auction? I've never bought or sold on tractorhouse but I know a lot of auctions will call something 'sold' if the reserve is not met. It is possible the auction ended without hitting the reserve so Fredricks just held on to it. Aaron

The wheels spinning opposite directions when the 4wd input shaft is unable to turn is normal. If the 4wd shaft is allowed to turn then both front wheels can (but still might not) spin the same direction. If by "a minute" you mean less than a revolution then the delay could be caused by a loose...

Thanks bmaverick! I'm still here and still read through TBN almost every day. I will try to start posting more again.

Thank you all for your kind words. I am still here and I still visit TBN at least once a week but I’m not really able to post much right now. I am no longer working for ASAP. I am currently taking some time off to hang out with the family and enjoy some hobbies that I was not able to do before...

Yes.

The most common Yanmar grease zerk is a M6x1.0 thread.

The new owners are actually a lot more invested in the used parts side than I was. The YM1500 brake cover that someone was asking about is a popular part and we sold all of the used pieces that we had.

Absolutely!

Oh yes! They are all still there wrapping around the driveway and more are arriving all of the time.

We originally made some heavy duty replacement spindles but, since they had to fit in the factory hubs, there was only so much we could do and they were still a weak(ish) link. So... we decided to start from scratch and offer a complete axle assembly. Those axle assemblies were made from almost...

It will not. Slipping the powershift into neutral will prevent the mower from pushing the tractor.

I am still here! :) I still read this site almost every day but I have been busy with other stuff so I haven't posted lately. I do really appreciate all of your comments as well as all of your business over the years! I did, indeed, sell the company to ASAP in 2021. I stayed on as the store...

I'm a little late with my reply but the canopy is still holding up great. I have hit plenty of branches and, other than a few deep scratches on the top, the canopy still looks like new. The tractor stays parked inside a shipping container (mice are nasty little creatures) so it has not really...

Ours has done that since new also. I assume it is normal but I'm curious to see if anyone knows the actual reason. I just assumed it was some sort of engine warmup parameter changing.

We just finished getting a roof installed on our 40' high cube containers with doors on each end. I keep my Kubota M62TLB , MX5800, and my F2690 mower in them as well as a sprayer & spreader. They fit perfectly and I don't have to worry about mice eating all of my wires again any more. With the...

Went to use the MX5800 yesterday and as soon as it started up there was an explosion of cattle cubes coming out from under the hood. A rat had stuffed pretty close to a 5 gallon bucket full of cubes up under the dash and all on top of the engine. :mad: He also chewed through a fuel gauge wire...

I have a FillRite FR112 hand crank pump in a 50 gallon barrel in my shop. When I need to pump more than I feel like cranking I just take my Dewalt cordless drill and stick a socket on the nut holding on the crank. Let the drill do the work. Works like a charm and one battery will easily pump a...

I just installed a new HDPE canopy from CoverMyTractor.com and could not be happier. The difference in comfort that little shade makes is amazing! I installed the kit by myself in about an hour and everything fit perfectly. All of the brackets are very well made and nicely painted (or...

We picked up a new 'bare bones' MX5800 this weekend for a pasture mowing tractor. I have seen a lot of MX's on here but most had loaders and other options so I thought I'd post this one. I bought it with zero options. I found a used weight bracket on ebay and added some aftermarket weights from...

My M62 upper backhoe swing bushing has never really taken grease like it should. I only have 50 hours on it and very little backhoe use so far. I could eventually force a very tiny bit of grease out of that area but I knew something was not right. The swing movement made a little groaning...

I finally convinced myself that it was time to add a thumb to the M62. After getting a quote from my local Kubota dealer (which is great but... ouch!) I decided to see what else was out there. I sent out several inquiries to various thumb manufacturers to see what was available. All but one...

So I have spent months trying to reason with that little voice in my head telling me that the M62 was too much money for the expected usage. "You're not a commercial landscaper what do you need this for?"... "Why not just rent a backhoe when you need one?"... "Just hire someone to come out and...
