    New Self Propelled Forage Harvester for a Farmer?

    There is definitely a market for a 400hp farmer spec Forager, i’m in a similar situation to yourself but acerage is slightly smaller. most modern foragers now are spec laden and its getting worse. i’ve been strongly considering a reverse drive Kempe forager, the C3000, pairing it with a used...

    Air Suspension upgrade for New Holland tractors.

    Congratulations on all your hard work, really interesting read and i’m certainly interested. i have a T6.160 and a T7.200 but both are 40k eco with no air on board. would it be possible to suggest an onboard compressor?And a small tank i guess? might be worth even making this a kit too? So...

    Fella will be badged Fendt. Lely badged/bundled with MF. Agco are seperating their brands, yet retaining a full line offering without duplication to retain individual brand Identities. Smart really.

    Lely Storm mengele 40

    I'd say the view is poor, but cameras are cheap, you put one on the pick up and the spout for less than £300

    A header like that would be ideal, i think its an old Mengele header that has had a pair of crop rollers added to it, hard to tell with the paint. Nice outfit none the less.

    Thanks, as @davedb said, its a reverse drive unit.

    That'd be great. Thank you. Out of interest, would the pick up from a 300 fit an older generation machine? - just forward planning for a few years time.

    Lely Storm mengele 40

    Thats what i'm wondering, are there wider pick ups available, i thought there was a 2.2m unit available years ago, just wondered if a relatively new, used unit (i.e galvanised bands) could be sourced? Or if it were simple enough to adapt an older SF header like a PU220 from a class 800 for...

    Lely Storm mengele 40

    I'm sure it would, but its only 1.8m would prefer a bit wider if possible.

    Lely Storm mengele 40

    Strange one, Have just bought a reverse drive SH40 But came with no header. Would it be possible to find a wide header to fit it? Someone told me perhaps the headers from the old Mammut foragers may fit or even a claas PU header from a forager? I want to go just as wide as i can, but...

    All change again in east of scotland

    Not the same dealer development manager, however the man in that role now was a Case IH man of old and would have been one of the few, if not the only one who would have been around at the time of the merger who is still with the brand today. My guess is that he was an area sales manager in the...
