How do you guys and gals determine the born on date (year) of your tractors?

DocG · 11-25-2010, 11:22 AM

Take the full model number of your JD (for example, mine is M00430X477478) and then go to THIS WEB SITE and enter it in. It'll give you the info.

I actually tried that earlier. It can't find my tag info. s/n: M0176X015864

Ok, then maybe this will help? CLICK HERE

You'll need the serial number vs the model number:

LX176 Serial Numbers:
1995: 110001
1996: 130001
1997: 160001
1998: 180001

Interesting. I just put the plate information on my 214 into the WFM decoder and it says my lift is manual. I can tell by the paint that the hydraulic lift was on the maCchine when it was painted at the factory. Hmmm....

You are missing a digit in the descriptor....try M0L176xxxxxxx

The WFM chart is not always Accurate I have a 1969 JD 112 But I could not register it over there It would not except the Machine Code

KATT · 11-25-2010, 04:41 PM

Doesn't work !! My X520 doesn't exist
tis site is Bogus couldn't find Toy either M00175X026928
1 maybe but both not found ??!!

Katt,

I believe that the WFM registry only provides model info for Garden tractors, up to the 1992 model year. Your 520 is too new and your 175 is considered a lawn tractor.

WFM is a great site! A lot of very good information on John Deere tractors and attachments can be found there. One will also see some great GTs owned by very talented and knowledgeable people. Don't knock it til you try it!

KATT · 11-25-2010, 06:54 PM

I did try it! the threads' name is. How do you determine the year of your Deere? not excluding everything but GT's. ergo bogus !
I am familiar with WFM and they have great members with a wealth of info and sections MTF doesn't have.
It's funny you mention attachments cause I would really be more interested in the year of any attachments we might get with a tractor cause the tractor is more easily figured out. Any help there ??
