    Willmar Wrangler 4550 help needed

    My uncle just picked up a "freshly painted" 4550 from an auction with a "NO" vin plate. I need to identify the year as there seems to be a 2005 and under, 2600, and 2007 and older parts books. Yes 3. I can tell you that it has an "oil cooled" Deutz 4 cylinder. And it has the fiberglass hood...

    Thanks, that is what we are going to try. I have the manual, but they take the whole assembly off and turn it over to replace all the wear pads etc. Thanks for the reply, cb1

    Forgot to add, does anyone know if the hole for the anchor shaft is blind or if I take the main cover off, will I be able to punch the anchor shafts out from the inside? Thanks again, cb1
