Will anyone do a pattern leg for a Horsch sprinter or will they be genuine only.
(The leg from the spring to the drilling point.)
We have had a bad today drilling some stoney land and broken two

Crikey! Is that a sideways break or compressed the spring to the end of its travel and the rock still didn’t budge? There was that chap on here that made the ‘Twinter’…can’t recall who but no doubt he would have explored all of the suppliers. I’ve always found Horsch to be quite refreshing with their spares prices so far-may be worth a call 🤷‍♂️

Its buried rocks
Always drill it with the disc drill but it’s so wet we had to use the tine drill, wish we had slackened the springs off a bit now

Slacken the spring?!?!: Is it the older CO 'classic' type leg from the earlier Sprinters, or the big horizontal spring from the later ST?

Found an old thread that Clive posted wanting some and Spaldings use to do them but can’t find them on there website so will give them a ring in the morning

Watch Spaldings like a hawk. 3 years ago I priced up Horsch and Lemken parts from 4 different spurious suppliers, and Spaldings came 5th out of 4 as they were even more expensive than genuine Horsch parts from the local dealer. I don't know WTF Spaldings are playing at, but they lost the plot with their sale to Marubeni, and they've since been sold on to some private equity investor which won't have improved their pricing.

Priced the legs off Horsch today and they are £105, would not of been surprised if they were twice that
Yeah they’re well worth a call. I rebuilt my whole rear following Harrow with genuine red bits and Spaldings wearing parts for 5 or 600 which I thought was reasonable. Old one had been reversed into various obstacles by previous owner 🙄 I bought some genuine seed pipe the other day and it was cheaper than any non genuine I could find….
