the model # should be on the same tag as the s/n you are supplying.

LE is an SK 903 from late 80's and early 90's. Kobelco bought a company called Yutani in the Early 80's and used the name Kobelco Yutani for years...sound strange...Every hear of Komatsu/Bucyrus?
Kobelco dealer should be able to help.
There are legal concerns about dealing with a Gray Market Machine from the manufacturer's and dealer view point, by all manufacture's, as they do not have North American safety equipment or decals.
Good Luck

your machine has counterweight lights. MDI/Yutani did not.
therefore, it is a kobelco.
your on-line parts catalog should be looked up under
K903 MARK II EXCAVATOR ASN LE7872
you maybe able to purchase a parts catalog thru a kobelco dealer or if you are given a hard time call kobelco customer service have them run the serial number to see if your machine is supported in north america. kobelco can inform you 100% if it is truly a grey market unit. dealers should not assume.
if not AN AVENUE AS WHICH ONE CAN PURCHASE O.E.M. GREY MARKET KOBELCO PARTS IS THRU
if you purchase a parts catalog thru farmers equipment then in most cases the part numbers are the same used in the north america unit.
its not easy with grey market units, but sometimes you can get lucky.

If it's grey market, (Japanese writing) wouldn't it be an SK03? As far as I know they are the same basic machine. I have a customer with one, and I've never had a issue with getting parts. If I remember right the undercarriage is an odd pitch making it quite spendy.

This is a very interesting forum. I have a MDI Yutani MD120LC, i'm looking for a used exhaust manifold, can't pay what they want for a new one. Anyone know where i might find a used one? Also, does this kobelco 905 have the same engine as my yutani? Ive also heard maybe the old CAT E110 has this engine, anyone know for sure? Thanks in advance for any help.
