Hi TBN readers! I have a cracked head on my John Deere 2305. The engine is a Yanmar 3TNV76. John Deere part number is MIA880090 or Yanmar part number 119717-11740. The bare head is approx. $3000 CDN and will require some machine work to be ready to bolt on so I'm looking for some cheaper options. Does anyone have a used head in ok condition or know of a source for one? I have tried ebay, kijiji, and a number of tractor wrecking yards with no success. There were some listings on Alibaba from some Chinese sources but after a few attempts, it appears they are dead listings that try to get you to buy a new reproduction head. I may go that way yet, but am still hoping to find a used OEM head as I think it might be the better way to go. Any thoughts?
