We have a 2006 Househam AR2500 which has done nearly 6,000 hours (3,500 in the last 8 years in our ownership). We fundamentally find it a good unit for what we need and it has been reliable. In the hope of having another 5 or 6 years of trouble free spraying i am considering refurb options to keep it fresh and hassle free. Has anyone done a similar exercise and if so can you recommend a 3rd party for the work / indicate the extent of what would be sensible to do at this stage on a machine which has been well serviced and never suffered any significant failures / had any substantial replacement parts? Am trying to get some kind of budget together to see if i'm on the right thought lines.

We have a 2005 AR 2500 that we bought from Househam’s with 4500hrs in 2015 we had it done up by them and it is now up to 8600 hours. In that time we have done one wheel motor one spray pump one compressor and welded up the rear axle and bushed the rear king pins and the filling/spraying valve and we had a fuel problem that was our fault plus the normal wear and tear items . I would talk to them as they are quite good at doing them up.
