What's a decent price to ask for a John Deere 445?

[mark1]

I have a JD445,,Just rebuilt the engine 23 HP Kawasaki FD620 water cooled with new rings.steel cam,etc.tractor itself in good condition 2000 hours,all body panels good shape the seat is in poor condition.Has a 60" deck,in good condition with Gator blades.The orig.engine went bad plastic cam broke took out enough of the engine that I purchased another engine with 990 hours and installed steel cam and & new rings before putting in tractor. It's hard to read tractors serial # but I expect it's a 1997 or 98

The plastic cams seem to always break on the Kawasaki engines. My Dad and BIL both have JD 425s with the Kawasaki engines and both have had issues with the plastic cam gear.

Hi Buck12 yep that's why I took apart the engine I bought and installed a steel cam. before installing it into my 445
