Does a Gregoire Besson mouldboard fit a Naud plough?

[melted welly]

As per title.

The bodies and mouldboards look very similar and i think Besson has acquired the Naud rights.

I think our Naud ploughs will last forever but getting the wearing parts will become harder. Mouldboards are the first casualty, had a quote for £325/board! ................

After we'd stopped laughing, he said he was actually being serious. A bit of opportunism on the chaps part i think as rivals quoting less than half that, but it's probably a sign of whats to come. Got me thinking we could perhaps modify the ploughs to take a different brand of board.

Anyone any thoughts?

Have you tried Spaldings? We always got Naud wearing parts off them, including boards..

Yes, that's where the hilarious quote came from!

Did you ring head office or try your local rep?

Hi, I will look into this in the morning. Last time i took a parts call on moulboards. We were were 30% cheaper than spurious.
What model plough is it?

 

[Dave W]

Hence why I despise spaldings. Best/only/real price first time or don't bother

It was the (new) rep.

Dunno if it’s a genuine price or if he just didn’t want the hassle.

He also said he’d already sold some at that price........

Thanks @Robt.

We’ve actually 3 of the old things, but they all use the same board. I’ve the OEM numbers in the office will look them out tomorrow.

 

[Robt]

No worries. Happy to help

They have some wild price variations I’ll give them that, but our rep is very good. Won’t deal with head office end of.. they’re out to rob you!

@melted welly have you tried the old spaldings rep who is now with Pan Anglia?

Yes, his quote was less than half!

You can't beat a Naud plough, apart from their shearbolt system is sh1t

Has there been a mass walkout or do we all have the same area rep?

Got so many stones here that shear bolt ploughs are non existent!

Dunno, somethings changed, finding their prices pretty uncompetitive now. Some of the local grimme dealers genuine parts are cheaper even.

What I meant was our X rep now sells pan Anglia, coincidence or a big area?
Think Kuhn bought naud, is there nothing in the Kuhn pages that will fit .

Looking in a French catalogue Naud moldboards seem to be from 85 to 168 euros depending on the model.
