Toro Workman 3200 project...anyone have one of these?

I will bet top speed, on the level or downhill is maybe 35MPH in 6th gear.

My TN buddy just talked to a gentleman who rebuilds the 3 cylinder Mitsubishi engines on a regular basis.

I think these 3-cyl Mitsubishi engines are also found in Kei trucks, so parts should be available.

I should have pulled the rear tires and wheels off of the red cab Toro before I sent it to TN. Once it arrived, there was no way the new owner would let them go. They were in great shape. I need to find another set and swap them out long enough to see just how much difference it does make. I guess I could take a set off one of the others I have, but those tires aren't nearly as nice as I would like to put on a Toro that I drive regularly.
Too cheap to just order new tires and rims, lol.

Yeah the rears are over 200 clams each. 12" wide and very high load capacity.

Plus I would need rims also!

Well, after more than a year and a half, my Toro is sold ($4500). Actually, I sold it twice this week, but on the first deal, the CFO gave the thumbs-down after my buyer got home.

Gonna deliver it next week to a strawberry farmer on the coast.

BTW, new ones with 3-cyl gas engine and 4x4 weigh in at 2000#, and have GVWR of over 3600#.

It really seems that 5000hr is where you are gonna see likely trannie problems. Easy enough fix, but everything has to come out first. Kinda like splitting a tractor. No way you can justify this repair if it only sells for $4500.

I really do want a 4x4 version, but I see their turning radius is larger.

My GPS says it is only going 23 mph but it has solid chevron tires on it that never need air. Apparently solid tires were an option, and this one was used in an industrial setting. They are quite a bit shorter in rolling circumference than the standard tires. I like them because they don't go flat, but they do dig when off the road.
The turning radius of a Toro is amazing! Slow down, spin the wheel and you're going the opposite direction with almost no loss in space! I haven't gotten the 4x4 running yet, might even be a while yet.
My propane Toro Workman had a flatbed on it, and the Church I go to needs to move some dirt. They offered to build wooden sides for it, but I just grabbed a spare bed with sides and swapped them out. I didn't have but one tailgate and it has seen better days. So after swapping beds, I proceeded to build a tailgate. Nothing fancy, and not nearly as nice as others recently built and exhibited on this forum. I will post a picture on the next post.

Added some  dirt to see how the Toro handled it. All is good!

BTW, last week I saw a 4x4 tranny unit listed on Craigslist in the Los Angles area for $900.

Seems to be lots of Workmen in SoCal. I am giving all the innards of my spare 4x4 trannie to the buyer.

I see the new gas Workman UTV gets a bigger 1-liter engine.

Does anyone have any parts for a 2014 Workman HDX Auto 4x4 with a Terra Cab looking for a shift actuator, (that’s the piece on the auto transmission that the shift cable attaches to ) and a full glass door right side !

The year and model of your Workman would make a big difference to what you need.
I purchased 4 and ended up only getting 3 doors to a Toro Workman cab. They are not the same as what is on my Toro Workman (Mauser Cab) but the hardware looks very similar, which probably means it is for a later model than what I have. I sold the cab unit I had that had a full glass passenger door on it.
My plan is to use the window out of one of the doors I bought to make a window in the passenger door. Currently my thoughts are to build another door and install the window to get a little more ventilation in the cab. Door isn't too hard to build, just 1x1 square tubing if I use the hardware from the later doors but right now I don't have time to do that. There just needs to be more ventilation in the cab. My cab has a heater, and if I don't pull the heat, I can just turn the heater fan on and it blows fresh air around the cab. That helps a lot.

I edited it thank you !

I have some Toro parts, tend to acquire them and then sell/trade them off to a buddy in TN. He and I bought 7 parts machines together because he needed a couple parts that were in a "lot" for sale. I made a seriously low offer and ended up having to go after them. Nothing anywhere close to being in this decade.
My buddy is the Toro Workman mechanic, not me. I just find a few deals and go after them.

So no 14 HDX parts ?

Probably not! I am not very familiar with the different models and what fits what. However, I will tell you that Toro doesn't like to reinvent the wheel, and uses a lot of parts that fit several different models.
At some point post a picture of the shift actuator. I won't be able to look at it this weekend, but will try to see if it matches something on one I have. The "auto" part of your description pretty much does away with all of mine because I buy stick shifts behind Mitsubishi engines. Any others are just part of a "lot". I think I have 2 that are HDX labeled. (One has disc brakes that will get used soon!!)
Most have been picked over pretty much, which is why I got them so cheap.
