JDPC will be decommissioned by 31 October 2018. Please start using Parts ADVISOR (Sign In).

I saw that too. I prefer the old parts catalog, I will use it right to the end.

Thanks for the heads up!

I have been using the new parts catalog for the last few months, and in the beginning seems more complicated to navigate, but the more you use it the easier it becomes.

Bugger! The new site won't work unless you download Adobe "Flashplayer".

 

[Kish318420]

The flash player is most likely for the ads in their banner. If you using firefox browser, then it should not need the flash player. Left of the ad banner is the 2 catalogs, new is above the old, the old also has verbage saying it is available for a short time yet. Then below the ad banner, are two search boxes, top one is for model, the one below it is for part number.

OK, I'm in now.

I HATE to see JD do this.
This was one area that JD had Kubota beat badly.
I bet the dealers complained about us getting part numbers and buying online.
Maybe the online dealers will step up and offer even easier parts diagrams.

In my case I have an open account with a JD dealer so I get on the parts site, look up my part numbers, and then say will pickup and pay at the dealer. If in stock they pick them, or order what they don't have and then when they come in they are ready for pickup and I just have to walk in and they hand them to me and out the door I go with basically no waiting.

They are just revising the parts website, you can still get to the same parts information as before. The shutdown notice clearly states that if you are a customer you should use the following URL:
