Sarge   3,464 #2 Posted December 17, 2016 Excellent score , @nigel - you'll love the brute force of the D series . Check the front axle and those steering spindles closely as they like to wear out and destroy themselves . I did a rebuild and mod post on one of those axles and plan to start offering rebuilds on this side of the Pond - it's in the Restoration/Modifications section  Sarge 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JackC Â Â 617 #6 Posted December 18, 2016 Looks to be in great condition. I wish I could find one of those seats with the arm rests. The D-200 is one of my favorites. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Stigian   1,234 #8 Posted December 19, 2016 Sorry to say this chaps but the D-200 is only in Nigel's workshop to get it running and have the tires changed....  It's a shame as it's a nice machine to have about the place.. I'd certainly like it in my small collection..  Anyway, a few "D" videos for you.. Enjoy        5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Retired Wrencher   5,535 #10 Posted December 23, 2016 nigel Very nice shape. I think this could be a monster tractor project. BIG BIG tiers. But if not very nice condition. Enjoy it for what it is. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevieb   12 #11 Posted January 22, 2017 A monstret project indeed, but the rewards are great. I have a D-200 here (in the UK) where I have used it for cutting grass since 1995. Sourcing parts has been challenging A few years ago the PTO clutch seized, eventually I got the parts and re-assembled it. But it never quite recovered and if my local mower shop cant fix it, I guess I will have to sell it on to someone with better mechanical skills. Shame as you get attached to the BEAST. A few pics for you to enjoy  2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
