Only you know the answer to that!Got a fm750 on my drilling tractor that im planning on moving on to the combine. I'll need a platform kit and loom but is it worth the hassle?
Putting your EZ-Pilot on the combine has more pro's than cons .... why run with a half full header? Have a look at the following link for a rapid transfer kit .... extra expense I know but cuts down the time required to transfer kit between units and could perhaps allow the steering to be used on more vehicles? You would need to speak to your local authorised Trimble dealer for prices.

I move my CFX 750 and EZ steer onto the combine every year. Feel far better after a long day now just concentrating on the crop feed and not having to steer. Definitely worth doing.
I find the motor the easy bit to swap over. It's the wiring looms, aerial, burying it tidily etc that takes the time.
I don't bother hiding the looms. They just lay in the footwell type position on the rhs of the steering column. Because mine aren't all hidden it only takes minutes to move it all.I find the motor the easy bit to swap over. It's the wiring looms, aerial, burying it tidily etc that takes the time.
ok you've all inspired me i ll get on to it this week. was going to get the dealer to fit it to the combine and do the setup and then in future years i can do it myself.
Got any quotes yet? In same boat and wondered about cost!!!
