    Advice for tramline kit.

    I have a simba freeflow and it needs a replacement ram for using the tramline kit. The thing is I don't have enough spools on the tractor to use it anyway. Would it be possible to use a 12v actuator to replace it like below. Has anyone done something similar?

    Did many of these ever sell?

    I bought this from a forum member a couple of years ago and only got round to using it this year. I'm sure it wasnt its original purpose but I cut down to a usable size and have used it as a cultivator on ploughed ground.

    Any fuel gun/hose recommendations?

    Our diesel tank needs a new gun and hose, does anyone have any recommendations. It's not something I've changed before, the last one is a Goodyear hose and gun my dad says has been there all his life he's now coming 75 ?. I like the idea of the one that counts the litres and a filter on it.
