Need a trailer coupling, lighting or electrics for your John Deere 6105R? The range holds more than 250 matching parts for this 6R series tractor.
The back end of a 6105R takes a beating: daily coupling, a pin grinding through dust, a jaw that no longer closes cleanly. This page lists more than 250 replacement parts for the John Deere 6105R, and a good share of them deal with towing and hitching. They are made by GRANIT, ROCKINGER, Scharmüller, Sauermann and Walterscheid.
Start at the type plate to make sure you have a 6105R from the 6R series. For drawbars and flange hitches, measure the rail width, pin diameter and hole pattern of the parts already fitted. For alternators and sensors, the reference number on the old unit is the best guide, together with the shape of the plug.
There are automatic drawbars, drawbar frames, flange hitches, trailer couplings and forced steering inserts, plus connector heads for the trailer brake line. Grease the coupling pin of an automatic drawbar regularly and check the pin and bush at every service. If the pin has worn oval or the bush has obvious play, replace both together, because a new pin in a worn bush soon hammers loose again. With connector heads, renew the rubber seal as soon as you hear air escaping when you couple up.
On the electrical side you will find alternators, micro relays, sensors such as the engine oil pressure sender, and LED work lights. For the engine and cab there are O-rings, seals, balancer shaft bushes and gas struts. Before you change an alternator, disconnect the negative battery terminal. The heavy charging cable is live at all times, even with the ignition off. After fitting, check that the belt runs straight in the pulley grooves.
Forced steering inserts are used with trailers whose axles steer with the tractor via a rod. When coupling up, check that the insert sits firmly in its holder and that the lock is closed. A loose insert sends a jolt into the steering rod at every turn and wears out the holder. When replacing a work light, compare the bracket and plug with the old lamp and route the cable so it cannot rub on a sharp edge.
If you also run a larger model, see the John Deere 6130R, 6155R, 6175R, 6195R, 6215R or 6250R pages to see what is listed for each one. To look across the whole brand, start at John Deere parts.
