Substitute Thermostat for DB885

My DB885 needs something warmer than the called for 172 thermostat (K200831). I have been unable to determine if the 180-189 (K910411) will physically fit. I'd use an automotive 192 if one the the correct size could be found. If one of you has an 885 thermostat out and could measure it for me that'd be great.

I have a lengthy post explaining why hotter on the DB/Case forum.

K200831 is 51 mm in diameter.

K910411 is a gasket.

Sorry, brain dead. K208039 (40085) is the number I should have asked about. It's is a higher opening temp stat for a variety of David Brown tractor models but isn't cataloged for the 885. Couldn't find dimensions for it to see if it had a chance to fit physically. No idea why I made note of the gasket.
 


The K208039 thermostat is apparently 54 mm, which would be about 1/8'' larger than the other part number you posted.
