ploughmaster Posted October 28, 2008 Share Posted October 28, 2008 The back end wouldn't stick it matey except that the MF back end is a GIMA unit, which is the same back end used in Renault/Claas which have the aforementioned 'green' engines in them!

Eurodeere Posted October 29, 2008 Share Posted October 29, 2008 European JD's are not Renaults. JD 3100, 3200, 3300, 3400, 3110, 3210, 3310 and 3410 were Renault Ceres in green. Renault/Claas have been using Deere engines but have now fitted Perkins to the new Axos range. I can see Claas fitting more Perkins engines to other models. Deere engines fitted to European models are cast in Mannhiem then transported to Saran, France for building. This plant is 100% Deere.

Udimore Posted October 29, 2008 Author Share Posted October 29, 2008 Eurodeere I will check the JD Engine drawings later on those models and see if any Renault parts are used... I am pretty certain there are some Renault bits on the drawings I was doing the electrics on last week Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
