May 22, 2019 · Done a JD last summer $300 dollars difference between Deere & aftermarket. Pretty simple choice to make.....that said makes a guy wonder where Deere sources their parts. Around 12 years ago I built a Deere 466 with Reliance kit, tractor was running a manure pump last fall and started so serious blowby.

May 22, 2019 · Honestly, I have less faith in the parts salesman at the counter (less faith than I do in the aftermarket parts) to 1.) Have any clue what I am asking for 2.) Actually be able to find it and 3.) Be able to accurately sub an old number to a new one and get the correct part. I CONSTANTLY deal with a parts guy ordering the wrong parts.

May 22, 2019 · Ive been dealing with Reliance issues on a 1655 Oliver diesel i rebuilt for a buddy this winter. He bought the parts for me to put in it. Crap rings. That tractor has been giving me ulcers trying to get it right. I saw the Reliance boxes after he got them.

Jan 24, 2025 · I have been in the process of restoring our 1951 MD for several years. I ordered the engine overhaul parts from a supplier that handled Power Max (which is now Reliance) back in 2014. Due to the head cracking again where a previous repair had ended, it was leaking for a while not noticeable till the last time I went to run it.

Mar 11, 2023 · Used a complete Reliance kit for the 1680 about five years ago, it is perfect so far. Put a reliance kit in a 5288 and it spun a bearing in five hours. New crank and clevite bearings in the 52 after the spin and left the rest alone. So far so good on it now after two years. Like Farmerfixemup, we used to get all Red Power kits, liked those.

Mar 17, 2024 · and 44,43,42,46 made gobs of parts "illegal" ie; correct parts are only available from assembler (tag on cover)/ dodge, CIH stelantis etc and NLA per above. a simple gasket may be the same,but MANY parts are, we say they are the same.reliance or less per narrative.

Apr 18, 2021 · My Ag Parts sales rep has been pushing Riley for awhile, and I'm curious as to what aftermarket manufacturers parts they sell. Even though Reliance quality sucked a bit, I really liked their website, model/ kit coverage and they were always johnny on the spot getting orders right and shipped out and gave e-mail tracking updates.

Nov 29, 2017 · Reliance power parts says that's how they'e made and up to .010 skirt clearance is acceptable which sounds way loose to me. I rebuild very few gas IH engines, so maybe a veteran on here can point the right direction.
