Hi everyone, I have a D7 17A and constantly struggling to locate a decent parts supplier. Im in Australia but am happy to wait for parts to come in from the US. Could someone put me in touch with a company that can help with parts please?

Get hold of Florin Tractor Parts in California, they are very good to deal with, Dana is the owner, Dennis his offsider, I've been buying parts from them for 10 years, as have many other Aussies, their prices are good, and if they don't have a part, they hunt around and find it to put with your order.

hastings deering should be your dealer ive never had much trouble getting parts through them. it does help if you have a part number to give them though. yes parts are like hens teeth and hence cost a arm and a leg. and some they dont have listings for. you can also try tillys or deaf jeff at toowoomba.

Hastings and westrac waste of time! Regularly buying from Tilly's. Always quote part numbers and I have access to sis. Problem is that cat are not standing by their older products as promised! They told us they would support their product hence classic parts! Absolute joke!

must be who you speak to then. yep some staff couldnt be bothered to help someone. the big issue getting stuff from overseas is the freight cost. yet that said auspost wanted more to send a item from regional qld to darwin than it cost to come from California in the first place.

"I also joined a year ago. had been on here a couple of times as a non-member and found the info very helpful so I got a one year subscription (not very expensive at all) to try it out. I really like all the resources on here so I just got a three year. I think its a very small price for what you can get out of this site."
