Need 76 Cyclone 440 Engine Parts

Post by liquifireguy »

I am looking for some NOS engine parts for my 76 Cyclone 440 that I am restoring. Here is a list of what I am needing. If anyone can help me, please call my cell phone 765-427-3441 or send a pm.

1. Right hand cylinder AM53053

2. Crankshaft AM53518-- am still deciding whether to find a NOS or have Jerome rebuild mine.

3. Both pistons-- STD bore-- would like original JD if possible.

4 Needle bearings (2)-- AM53034

Thanks, Jeff

Pat, That's too bad. I tried calling him several times this afternoon and left one message. He never got back with me. I wanted to get an idea on what I was looking at to rebuild it. I am kind of stuck between rebuilding and finding NOS. With rebuilt, you would be putting a used crank back in, but it would have brand new center seals instead of 40 yr old seals with NOS. Does anyone have any experience with other crank rebuilders on these Deere sleds? Thanks, Jeff
