John Deere 894 hay rake wheel

[johnmor]

I purchased an 894 hay rake, bretty bad shape but have resolved most of the issues with it. Problem is, one of the wheels had a bad tire and
rim and I cannot seem to find a replacement rim for it. I tried Lindstrom Equipment but they say the product is on back-order and don't know
when they will become available. They offered an alternative, slightly different but I would like to stick with the original. Does anyone
know where I might be able to purchase either a new or used wheel.

Are those just a 4 bolt wheel for the rake? If so they can be had at most places that sell AG wheels like Heywheel and others. Might not be exact but would work for the job and you could find an excat match later while you do the work with it. On an old rake nobody will probably really care anyway.

Yes, 4 bolt. I will check Heywheel to see what they have.
thanks!

Is there no machinery parts yards around you? If so you can buy what you need for a quarter of price for new.

I have used them in the past and have phoned a couple with no success. Seems they only hang onto the high dollar stuff anymore, Any suggestions regarding a yard that may have this?
