You should buy Kawasaki parts some time.. I needed four little carb drain hoses 1_8" or so and 18 inches long = $18.00 each.... I refused and bought 8 ft of vacume line at auto parts house for $2.00.. Yes I know I am the one that preaches about supporting you dealer but even I have my limits.....

I was told that AGCO owns Denison. Hydro repair shop cannot get parts since the purchase. You just reinforced my opinion Agco parts are too highly priced. I needed a small gear for the rear wheel drive hub on R50 - $838!! some negotiating by dealer got it to $135 but none available - there's the other drawback of Gleaners.

We have found that working with AGCO on parts prices is a long laborius task. But it does yield results. The MF guys have really gone after them, and as a result we have noticed that hydraulic pumps for example are now in most cases less expensive than TISCO. When they are out of line there has to be a report filed, then pricing looks at the paramaters, if volume warrants, a rebidding or re-sourcing starts. It takes time. Agco has another new - seasoned - man at the parts help. Bruce Plageman. He has worked here and abroad. He will be a asset. AGCO parts is a BIG job. NI, White, Oliver, Gleaner, Spra-Coup, Wilmar, Black Machine, Vicon balers, AC, MF, Glenco, Tye, Farmhand, Minne Mo..... geezzzzzz Anyway they have a big job to do, the better the input, the quicker they can react, somethings , however are tough. Your parts are tooo high is tough to do anything with.

Can anybody back this up, I don't think that AGCO owns Dennison as the hydro man said they don't make much for ag anymore. Also correct me if I am wrong but I think the new combines use a Sunstrand hydro, If AGCO owned Dennison wouldn't they use itIJ I was not trying to badmouth AGCO, I was trying to take some heat off them, but if this is true then I might just be torqued off.

The Sunstrand hydro is the same one used in Ag-Chem's RoGators.

I was just curious as to where you had your Dennison hydro rebuilt.

At a place in Roland, Iowa. They have been around for quite a while and do a lot of the hydro work in this part of the state. Kirk
