[QUOTE="Goweresque, post: 6096958, member: 818"] You'll struggle to find a plastic/fibre door. The later all glass ones are still available I think, but the old plastic/fibre frame ones are long gone. Whether you can retro fit a glass one I don't know, as I bodged a steel door frame together when my DX90 plastic door died. The cabs are the same I think so it should be possible. Brakes are certainly fixable, I had mine done on my DX90 last year, I think the calipers were sent off for refurb somewhere. Engine parts should be available, my DX6.05 had a new piston and rings a few years back. If you're stuck for parts it might be worth speaking to Clive Griffen at Beckett Agricultural Engineers ([URL]https://www.beckettagricultural.co.uk/[/URL]), he worked for a Deutz dealer in the 80s who sold a lot of these machines locally, and knows them as well as anyone, he owns a few as well. He's fixed engine, brake and gearbox issues on just about all my fleet of similar age Deutz tractors, and has the contacts for parts. [/QUOTE]
