Parts availability MAY be an issue.
I have a Ford New Holland GT75 diesel made by Shibaura (CUTEST, nicest little tractor you could ever hope to own) and needed a spindle for the mower deck, nla from FIAT, my B-I-L works at a CNH dealership and there is simply none to be had, even from old stock at other dealers and NOS parts warehouses, I've searched all over the 'net with no luck. I've asked several times on the GT Forum here, as well. (The spindle is fairly involved, lots of machining, a keyway, splines, and it's hardened, not something easily made at the neighborhood machine shop.)
I've been told that is not uncommon with Shibaura parts.
It's pretty sickening when you own a nice little machine that's not "ancient", at least in my eyes, (1995, IIRC) and can't get parts.
Do your homework to be sure you don't end up with something like that.

Today's Featured Article - 12-Volt Conversions for 4-Cylinder Ford 2000 & 4000 Tractors - by Tommy Duvall. After two summers of having to park my old 1964 model 4000 gas 4 cyl. on a hill just in case the 6 volt system, for whatever reason, would not crank her, I decided to try the 12 volt conversion. After some research of convert or not, I decided to go ahead, the main reason being that this tractor was a working tractor, not a show tractor (yet). I did keep everything I replaced for the day I do want to restore her to showroom condition.
