[QUOTE="Spud, post: 7212781, member: 78"] At 12m (or even 6) I'm sure a modern front hopper is much better than extra weight on wheels behind the drill. How do you get seed to the drill? Fixed rigid to the tractor then a flexi at each end? A mounted toolbar not a problem as such, but with a heavy combination hung on the back, the empty hopper needs to be heavy enough to hold the nose down on the road, which can mean too much weight on the tractor wheels with the drill in work, unless it's lowered onto wheels, which reduces visibility still further. I'd much prefer a front press, which has the effect of removing the weight in work. [/QUOTE]
