Tractor starter
I required a starter pinion and the retaining ring. Your staff was knowledgeable and friendly.
My tractor is back in business. I originally thought I needed the complete starter assembly, (14 times more expensive than just the pinion). Your assembly and video tutorials were extremely helpful and guided me to buy only the pinion.
