Just spent the morning out at 2-CYLINDER PLUS TRACTOR SALVAGE, in CONWAY MO PHONE 417-589-2634. They had everything I needed. I got 2 T16259T Sprockets, an idler and was going to get the cross bar but we could not get it off. He plans on working on it to get it apart. Very reasonable an and the sign says One of the largest John Deere 2-cylinder suppliers in the world. Mostly wheel tractors but they have a few crawlers.

Rob,

If you don't mind me asking, what did you pay for the sprockets and what sort of shape were they in?

I may have to stop, by there the next time I am down near Lebanon. You didn't notice whether they had any 2010 crawlers, did you?

As far as what condition I will let you be the judge as far as price I paid $200 each.

Not too shabby Rob. I think you made out OK.

FYI, there's a 16259T sprocket on EBay right now, looks to be in pretty decent condition although the guy painted it so it is hard to tell for sure (the teeth look good).

Apparently the guy is going to list the other one separately. Item number is 280136623619.

I posted the sprockets for sale.

Since I have been searching out scarce parts for the my 440ICD I seem to have stired up the muddy water and have found a couple of sprockets floating to the top. I have bought a couple here and there and I am keeping the best four for myself. The rest after I compare them to be the best I am selling. As you can see I am not selling junk and it is a coat of rust arrestor paint that I put on them to prevent anymore rust from forming after they were pressure washed and cleaned up.

I plan on buying some odds and ends since I plan on using my JD 440ICD for work and keeping a small supply of the hard to find parts. I have looked at buying a couple of other partly stripped tractors but right now most have been stripped of the parts that I might need but I am keeping my eyes peeled for another tractor.

Well Rob, it doesn't look like the market is going to bear $325 for your extra sprockets. Any thoughts as if you're going to relist them starting lower?
