[QUOTE="RobW, post: 7873265, member: 148297"] Hi Adam, We have a 6m Sabre tine (the newer one but with the metal tank) which we bough to get us out of bother when the GD would not go. It will be fine on your 8RX but it is seriously heavy (about 3.5m unladen). Our 8370 knows it's there and you need plenty of front weight. The plastic tank saves some kg but it's not a game changer. Last year we took the tyres off - the older model has them in front of the tines which is better. Our problem this year was with any straw on the surface it acts like a rake and just keeps pulling it until you lift at the end of the field, so we have some fairly impressive heaps around the farm. The sabre tine with the front hopper is great but my understanding is that it is not a quick job to put it on. Don't forget the fert spreader and spring tine but probably not in unworked land! Feel free to come and have a look. I realise it is neither a Claydon or Triton so doesn't help with your actual question. Regards Rob [/QUOTE]
