John Deere 6414T broke a crank. What else are my options

I have a John Deere 624E wheel loader. Its got the deere 6414T
in it which broke the crank. I really dont want to pay deere to
overhaul the motor. The loaders not worth much. Im really
struggling to find a used 6414 turbo engine though. Do I have
any other options? Could I buy a non turbo 6414 and just swap
manifolds and turbo off of mine? Anything else different on a non
turbo 6414? Otherwise would a 6068T engine bolt right up as
well?
 
This may help; years ago i dealt with Standard Crankshaft in the Carolinas. They are on the net. Anyway, they can repair anything and set you up. If the crank is the only problem they may help you out.
 
I would think the engine was used in a tractor of some kind. Might not be hard to find and throw a used tractor engine in it. As for putting the turbo on a non turbo engine, there are probably some differences. Piston cooler nozzles, maybe heavier rods, etc. Might work, might not.

There are always significant differences between the natural and turboed versions of an engine. Things like holes in the rods to spray cooling oil at the underside of the piston. However, many tractor engines have gotten turboed without making all the changes, and have done just fine. It would probably not be a good idea if you were going to put it in an active quarry and load trucks all day or push snow for six hours at a stretch but for short duration work it should outlast you.
 
Sorry to say but Standard Crankshaft as we knew it is no longer in business. They only sell new, used and reconditioned cranks and are out of he machine shop business. They were the best of the best. I used them several times.
 
That engine was used in a variety of John Deere industrial equipment. Somewhere on John Deere's website there should be a list of machines using it. I have one in a power unit. I'll bet there's a decent engine out there if you search. I suggest you compare the parts book with your engine serial number, etc. to refine your search.
 

One can enter a part # search utilizing engine block/sort block on JD parts site to determine other equipment applications for that engine.

I would not use a non-turbo crankshaft in a turbo engine as it will probably fail sooner than intended due to the extra load. Is the broken crankshaft the only problem with your engine?

I don't know if Deere used 6414T engines in any combines or cotton pickers. Harvesters are usually worn out long before their diesel engines are half worn out.

Have you looked into a crate engine or rebuilt long block or short block engines?
 
No the motor the engine is pretty well shot. Cracked the block real good as well. I guess what I was asking was what else are my options for used engines.
 
A. J. welcome to YT! Do you normally deal with an John Deere ag dealer or is what you do strictly construction. Reason I asked is I would suggest calling an ag dealer and see if they could look up what machines used that engine. And if you do parts business with them they may be more willing to take the time to do this sort of thing. As was said a 9400 combine used that engine so there are probably other ag machines that used them. I can pull up a list of engines on the JD parts site but it seems to only show engines currently produced by JD.
 
The crank shaft for a turbo engine and a non turbo engine is the same,,a 359 engine will bolt in,, put your turbo manifolds over on it,, the power will be a little less but it will still work good..I have even put 329's in 544 loaders and they work out fine.. lots of 329's out there out of combines,, 359's out of 2950's,,the junk yards should be full of them...
 
I have a 6414t power unit that was used to run a sawmill. No longer needed. I am in michigan. If that might work for you, give me a call in the morning. 989 660 0525 Jody.
