Does anyone know where I can find water pump bearings for a John Deere 855. I have the bearing number, have just been unable to find a vendor. Or if anyone knows of a salvage yard that specializes in compact tractors.
If you have a bearing number, you should be able to go into any place that carries bearings (like auto parts or maybe machine shops) and get a replacement.
Good luck finding parts for these pumps. By the time you source the parts and then pay a machine shop to press everything off and then back on you might as well buy the new unit form JD if they have them. Many parts for these JD/Yanmar engines are extinct.
