This muffler was the only one our Agco dealer had. Looked for the correct one, but couldn't find it. Everything else has been kept original. It has 4800 hours on it and runs like a top.
PPG PO #2 was used and it has the optional 15.5x38 rears. I really like the bigger tires. Now just need a set of black suitcase weights :). Edited by ac.d17iv - 05 Jul 2012 at 12:40pm |

My 180 is jealous. Wanted to buy a used grill, but now have gas in the oil, so fuel pump will be needed. Someday, maybe my 180 will look this good!

Great job, the wait was well worth it. Need a pic of you and Ken beside it. Will hopefully be in Red Oak Sat evening for the pull. Will only have our D21 there as the 210 is still waiting for parts. If you or Ken come out say high, I will be around the tractor until pull starts then I will do the announcing. Doyle

The tractor looks great! I grew up on a 185, and have worked on a few locally but have never seen one with the tall tires. You've got a rare bird there!
The other day my boss told me to go to so and so's place to fix a tractor tire. He told me the size was 18.4-28. I instantly knew it was an a-c, and would have bet on it being a 185. I should have bet someone, cause I was right!

People think I just drive around and throw nails out, but the truth is I fix tractor tires for a living. I don't need any help making more work for myself!

That tractor looks great. Love the look of the tall tires with the roll bar. Ours has the tall rubber but our 180 has the roll bar.

NICE job! One day I will do the same to my 180. But I don't have the 38's. The 38's look good on these tractors. All your 185 is missing is a canopy. That would finish off the already 99% awesome tractor! Also like the wheel weights.
Good luck! CT

Thanks everyone for the comments. I like the wheel weights too. Some day, we'd like to get suitcase weights on the front. A canopy would be nice on those hot days. As far as we know, it never had the canopy on it, but it would look cool.

Nice tractor. It looked good before. Now it looks awesome.

Think for yourself and be your own expert. Be willing to change your mind; however, willingness to change your mind doesn’t mean that you will. Blindly following any path is the pinnacle of insanity.
