In southwestern PA. I have a 3204 that I'm parting out. Engine is toast. It blew a rod through the cover plate like a 22 shell. 650-ish hours on the machine.

Trans is good I believe, but I started having a lack of power uphills when the engine went. I thought at first it might have been the axle shafts slipping, but after the very unexpected engine failure I'm not sure if that was ever a problem. I'm not sure what happened but beside the lack of power the thing ran super smooth. Started right up in 0 degree easily and would idle smooth even with idle all the way down. Oil was clean and I took filter off and cut it open and it had no metal. No idea what happened.

I bought a what I thought was a parts 3200gt for the engine, but it turned out it is nicer than my 3204. I'm switching some of 3204 parts to the 3200, so besides engine what is unavailable off the top of my head will be as follows.

Parts that are gone:

-Engine is blown but wil sell if you want to rebuilt.
-The 3 port hydraulics is getting put on the 3200. I'll have the 2 port off the 3204 to sell.
-valve cover that oil cap screws into. -valve cover on other side has a rod hole in it

Big items that I have worth noting:

-I'd sell it whole as a rolling parts tractor
-the rear tires are brand new (probably want to sell on the rims as a set)
-a single front tire is new. the other holds air but is a racing slick(rims the same as rear)
-60 inch mower deck, missing belt metal covers- this was off the new tractor but my yard isn't huge so I think I'm keeping my smaller deck to save garage space. no holes and is pretty clean, I bought some gunk to degrease it but I haven't yet. Will be able to very exact shape then. I did put it on and it mowed as intended. That's when I decided I'd keep the smaller deck. 60 was a bit big for my 1/2 acre of mowing.


I'm looking any kind of hitch for the 3200GT. Sleeve, cat-0, or cat-1 that I don't need to do crazy or any fabrication to make work. Manual or hydraulic. I'm open to trades for this or to buy it outright. Biggest thing that I'll use with it is a grading blade of 36 or 48".
