And yo u ’re sure h u n tin g trouble
when you put cheap, bogus replacement
parts on your genuine J o h n D e e r e
Q u a l i t y - B u i l t E q u ip m e n t.
The saddest and sorriest folks we know of are
those who
around looking for bargain re
placement parts—and find them; the folks who
learn too late that a bargain today is a head
ache tomorrow.
Remember that when you put an inferior
part on a high-quality Implement, you're not
repairing; you're seriously impairing the work
ing and wearing qualities of that implement—
it all bolls down to the age-old saying that a
chain Is only as strong as its weakest link.
So, be wise! Buy only genuine John Deere
repair parts for your John Deere equipment.
When you buy John Deere Implements, you
are sure of prompt repair service during their
long life. We make good on that promise.
