Looking for a set of wide wheels for 4140. 8 stud front axle 12 stud rears

The GPS boys use less seed and fert. If he's got it, use it to it's full potential

I probably couldn't either. The person breaking in in front of me would wipe out my mark/rip up what I've sowed 🤦🏻‍♂️. My ploughing is equally as bad as my sowing so there's usually a bit of work to do on the endrigs and corners before I come along and make another rid up for the rest of the year 😂

I meant if you're just mapping the boundary without sowing

Until you get used to dropping in at the right time you could use the pre start on the drill when setting off. I back off the rate a little bit on the 5th endrig run too to make up for the overlap. Depending on how your tramline sequencing triggers you definitely have to keep an eye on it as...

That's usually the way, at least if you're on autosteer you don't have to worry about it being straight 😂 Do you tramline with the drill and is your metering on a landwheel or electric?

If you're on GPS then yeah definitely go round the outermost run first to map the field then you'll have everything you need and you'll know exactly where your tramline run is. Might not even need to put in an endrig mark if you can set it up so it tells you when you lift. I'm still on the mk1...

On 4m/28m here. I first run round the field on the endrig tramline (4th round) with my marker out in to the centre of the field so it's in the middle of the 5th run and that's my mark to lift out and drop my front tank. Depends also on your forward speed, if going a bit slower in ploughed...

@fermerboy Eurofab. Another full set delivered here last week specced with MTG teeth and floating pins for a 16 tonner Beware, some UK manufacturers aren't actually making the buckets, just building them up/welding together parts that are plasma cut in China and shipped over in containers...

That they didn't know they owned .... Sticky fingered twunts.

Keruing would probably be a good wood to use for a bearing. Twice as hard as oak and it's the wood used on lorry trailer floors

I've got a 9 tonne DP winch and a 15 tonne Rotzler, both hydraulic. A 20 tonne line pull is a huge amount of force and would be very rare to get that amount of pull winching out agriculture stuff. You need to build a sprag that will dig in to the ground preferably with the winch line either...

I was just about to post a similar question about Milwaukee GG. Does anyone else have the problem of grease still coming out the end after you've finished pumping? Mine likes to dribble out a stream of grease for a while after you've finished. Aside from that it's a brilliant bit of kit. I was...

Stay away from a Daf. At some point the ECU will fail for no reason other than it might be a Tuesday.
