John Deere Gator 4x2 Project Part 1- New Parts and Tear down! 

I was worried when you said yours was pretty rusty, so it was a relief to see this one wasn't too bad!

Thank you!!

They are simple, for sure. I almost ended the video right as I was taking out the bedliner, but thought that would be mean 😂😂

DeHaven Family Farm hahah that would definitely have been mean 😂

I hope it turns out nice, but I am re-using the plastic bedliner because I spent too much on other stuff lol

Thanks Ed!!

Thanks! They are great little machines.

I think the tires would fly off if I put nitrous on it lol

Welcome to the family! I already published all the videos in the series, so you should be able to find them if you look under channel videos. I have not added up all of the receipts yet, but I think I am around $800 for all of the repairs.

@@dehavenfamilyfarm That's really not bad to basically restore the Gator that you have. I may do nearly the same to mine this summer (mostly cosmetic). Our Gator is pretty much a "work horse" on our property (35 acres in North Florida). It has served us well but could use a little bit of TLC. It's my wife's favorite machine to use over some of the newer machines that we have. I did watch the rest of the series. You did a fantastic job! Whoever buys it from you is going to get a great machine.

Thanks! I ordered them from a Deere dealer. Just have your serial number handy- it makes it easier for the parts guys to look up what you need :)

The serial number is how most dealers like to look up parts. Different sets of serial numbers, or different years of machines, may take slightly different parts- kind of hard to explain lol

@@dehavenfamilyfarm The answer for the second question is that sometimes fixing older equipment can be a Bi***. After ya get it fixed it become a Ba*****, just trying to keep it up. Just my observation.

Yes I did, and then it came apart pretty easily 🙂

Ordered it through my local JD dealer.

I'm not sure. I've honestly never had that issue. Maybe load the front tires or a heavy bumper?
