Oliver Rake help

John Schoenauer · Nov 18, 2012

I am trying to find an Oliver hay rake to buy and use. I find a few #2's around but I am not sure that I would be able to find replacement teeth and the 21" tires are real expensive. I saw a 207 advertized and it looks like it would need 2 of the 5 bars repaired or replaced (bent). Does anyone know where I might find some parts or better yet a usable rake?
Thanks

Where are you?

I have a 207 rake that I"d like to use, but I need some bar bearings along with the diamond shaped bearing holders. Could also use one end plate that the bearings fasten to.
My e-mail is open and ph is (630) 774-2087

Vernon, I am in Norfolk Nebraska. I assume that the KS means you are in Kansas I might be headed that way in a couple of weeks.

The last time i looked at adds in the paper (sometime in the past few weeks) Farmers Impelment and Irragation in Brooking SD has an Oliver rake listed in their used equipment. I can look up the number for them if you cant find it. dont have it in front of me now. They are a new holland dealer so it should be findable online. If i remember right they had a high price on it or at least i thought it was high but it never hurts to call they have had it around since the summer.

TJV that is the 207 I mentioned needing rerpairs. Their pictures show 2 bars that are bent. I'm not sure if they can be straightened.

John give me a call at (316)621-1248 and we'll talk. I have a 107B that is in good to very good shape that I may concider selling.

Wow! I looked at the pictures and price of that 207 and that's all I can say. I realize that that's just a starting price point but considering that parts for these are getting fewer and farther between, I don't know. I'd buy it for around $250 for parts. I thought mine was in bad shape but in comparison to this one it's factory new! Everything on mine works and the paint is still there but faded. The ball socket in front is worn but I'm going to build a new one this spring since I don't think they are available anymore. The thing I don't like about mine is the rubber teeth. I've had it for over 5 years now and haven't been entirely satisfied with how it rakes grass. But it is what is.
