Hoye Tractor

They have a lot to do!! We all can see that. ASAP is getting it straightened out I'm sure. I could only imagine all the B! they're are having to go through! Enough members on here to try to keep up with support until they do!! I noticed Fredricks has changed also

Can you post a link to get me to YM1401? I just tried it again with no luck. I'm redirected. I did search by equipment within Partsasap's site and found many more parts but no diagrams/exploded view of parts manual.

Are you looking for a specific part. I might be able to veer ya in the right direction.

No Dia. on Hoye site I believe it was on this thread. So I helped him out which he thanked me for.

Saw this post. I was trying to get on there a few weeks ago and it looks like the site totally changed and no longer shows them. Just like lists of parts of I remember right? It was super useful for working on the tractor to look at the exploded views of the assemblies. Also helped In ordering parts. I ordered pretty much every part I have ever needed from Hoye, I liked the diagrams. Was also easy to ask about a part with them you could refer to them.

I've seen some changes on the Hoye site. And the search engines will tell you something is there via link or images, you click on it and it's missing on the Hoye site now.

Seems the Parts ASAP make-over on the site could follow the Sparex or Fredricks sites. This removes the cross references and narrows the ability to find alternatives. When this happens, prices can be raised.

Parts ASAP also has Yesterdays Tractors too.

If you go to Tractor Joe, it's now a full redirect to Parts ASAP site.

I fear something like that might of been planned. For the most part the parts from Hoye Tractor were not outrageously priced. Many items were a good deal I thought especially with the support that was provided before and after the sale. I bought a three point valve from Aaron. Basically to keep a super long story short I bet we had 70 some messages back and forth on their help ticket system trying to figure out what was going on with the parts I got . I joked and said that must have been the longest running thread ever and he said no, not even close

we all miss Aaron. He said he'll hang around, but it's been silent.

He talked and breathed Yanmar parts and tractors for most of his life. Now what? To just stop, is like telling a pianist never to touch a keyboard ever again. Or an artist never to pick up a brush 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.

I really do appreciate all of your kind words and all of your support over the last 20+ years!

Aaron, is there some way to provide all those parts diagrams to the new owners? Do you have a backup copy?

They are an immensely valuable resource. I expect having them online would improve sales.

FWIW I just looked at what Diagrams I do have. All the YM2000 or 2cyl. and the only one I don't see is Power shift. There's 33 dia. in all. I can scan them and I may have them on CD. I'm going to look for them on Disk Etc. If someone needs a Dia. section PM. me and I'll scan it and get it to you. Hopefully they may show up on ASAP but if not I'll do the best I can. Posted this pic before. I can look up all the Part #'s for almost all Yanmar early models. It barely fit in the 3 ring Binder.
