I am no expert on this but I do have some knowledge about this subject. Have a neighbor who bought one on a farm sale. It was a real sharp looking late model kioti, mfwd, loader the whole deal. At about 600 hrs it spun a rod bearing and ruined the crank. After alot of checking he had no luck getting ahold of anyone that new about getting undersized bearing if he got the crank turned. We are in central illinois so last winter when I went to louisville to the farm show he gave me a sheet of paper with all kinds of information about the tractor and his contact info and he asked me to get it to someone in the kioti booth. When I got to the kioti booth I told the first rep I saw what I wanted to do and he said to just hold on a second and he would get the teritory rep for my area. The rep was from South Carolina! That is a long way from Ilinois. He did get in contact with my neighbor and he ended up buying a very expensive crank and some other parts. He doesnt complain much about the tractor just that it is hard to get any support from the company or their dealer network. You probably should check and see if there will be any dealer support if you need it down the road ten years. Good luck.
