Thinking of buying a 4340

[uscmarinehotmailcom]

Hello from Tennessee!

I came across a 97 4340 cab. Its in decent shape, has 3,033 hrs. Previous owner bush hogged with it and thats about it.

Only issues I see is that none of the exterior lights work on it. Hazards work but turn signals do not. The other issue is that there are 2 different size tires on rear. Left is an OEM 16.9/28 and the right is an 18.4/28. So Ill need two rear tires.

What are some things that I should be aware of? What problems should I anticipate. I should say that there is a fuel pump on left hand side that is attached to the tractor using zip ties. I think this is the new pump added since the old one kept losing its prime?

Best places to get parts? Paint codes?

Thanks in advance!

A 4340 would be an unusual tractor in Ireland as it is so small. But having no lights could be bulbs or fuses, having different width tyres could be to suit maybe having a topper on the side to carry the weight.

It must have an electric fuel pump added on if it's got cable ties holding it on.
