D15 fenders

I'm pretty sure the front cowling is shorter on the D15, than that of the D17. Rick

D15 front rad shroud is wider than D14 .  John

D14 fenders are the same as D15 Series I AND Series II.  The only differences with Series II are the grab handle/headlight mounts and the taller fender mounting plates.  The fenders themselves are identical.

As they have stated above the 14 and 15 series 1&2 are exactly the same shape with the exception of a few holes on the series 2 but good luck finding a set. I have been searching for a couple years now with no luck finding any of the above for my 14 resto project. If you happen to find to 2 sets let me know.

If yours are not too far gone, someone who does/did bodywork can fix them up.  I've done that with several of mine.  He pounds out all the dents and replaces metal in any rusted out areas.  It's hard to find good used ones, so sometimes this is the best thing to do.  Mine come back as good as new!

Make sure to tell him to weld in new metal and not just fill with bondo - your headlight would not have a ground in that case!  Having a neighbor that is a professional body man is handy to have in restoring these things.  He actually likes working on this stuff more than cars now in his older age!  There has not been a piece of sheet metal that he has not been able to fix yet!

I have the front cowling for both the series 1 and series 11 D-15 tractors. Also the front cowling and fenders for D-14. Will sell anything. 785-353-2392 Thanks

Thanks Ray. I went to the local body shop and he's charging $400 to straighten both fenders and the cowling. Cowling is the hardest since it has a crease right beside the emblem. He seemed confident about straightening it. And said welding up the tore fender would be an easy fix.

All D14 fenders are the same.  None of them had lights mounted on the fender (except for the bullet style tail lights on the back).  Over the years, someone probably drilled holes in them to put lights there.

I have dealt in buying and selling some fenders.  $700 for a set is out of this world in my opinion.  I know good fenders bring more money, but for that price, I would expect them to have the holes and dents fixed, painted to match my tractor, and for you to come here to install them on the tractor.

Lonn a few years ago I looked everywhere for a ser of replacement d15 fenders and they just didn't make then. Mine where truly beyond repair all the ribs rusted to nothing at all falling off the tractor and dented just junk so I bought a set of d17 reproduction fenders. They are close enough for my tractor as it is a work tractor and I mostly just want a place to put my hand when driving.

Lon if they are as nice as you say just hang onto them and sooner or later someone will pay the price. JMO

They are and I have them on the wall next to my NOS WD grill and fender. Just not right for my early D14 restore.

My d15 has a loader and the fenders are mounted out on the loader hangers to give me more room or they will be pretty soon so everything is custom. But you do have to modify the setup to hang them the ribs on the d17 fenders are different even though the overall size is about the same. I had a picture once of the two fenders one sitting inside the other almost the same length but the d15 curls in more at the top and the d17 has more of a corner.

That is a d15 fender sitting inside the d17 fenders on my d17 I figured it was close enough for a working tractor after looking at it for a while.
