Few pics of the latest edition, 1995 N reg 7740 anyone know her? N142 CKH, last name on the tax book is G Fawcett from Hull

set up for match ploughing in the first photo?

@yellowbelly almost your patch?

Almost, but not quite - don't venture over the Humber too much as there's always a bloke on the other side of the bridge that takes money off you

CK is a Hull plate though

Think it was a sprayer tractor, toolbox was full of nozzles

I was guessing by the 13.6 tyres and the fact the wheels were set so narrow

Perhaps if you feel so inclined you should put a thread up on here with everything on? Make sure you negotiate a commission mind

Anyone know what this fetched ?

How fast on the road is a 2wd 7840? What’s the tallest tyre you can put them on ?

 

[essexpete]

I have no idea but there would not be a facility for the crappy 4 wheel braking so would assume it should be 20mph. The 4WD 40series often seem faster than 25mph so the 2WD might be a faster than advertised.

 

[Vincent]

My SL 4wd will do 40 k just barely .

Limited to 30k,I think. Got 18.4 R 38 om mine.

And what do you get at the top end?
Took my 4wd 7840 on 18.4's out last night with sprayer on and got 45k. Tracking drawbar was a bit sensitive at that though.

Never even been in top gear with it, there's no where around here with decent enough roads to dare get up to top speed.

Have seen a set of 580/70/38 on a 7840 - it made it look real fierce

I was on dual cabbageway. Vroom vroom.
Put loader on 8340 today.
That does 45k on standard tyres.

I just need to plumb a shock absorber / accumulator into lift ram pipework.
