[QUOTE="Toms820, post: 6727588, member: 123206"] This is a long post but hopefully someone can help. Been looking for the last few weeks at buying my own Sward lifter for my self (120 acres perminant pasture and 70 acres of crops and rotational grass for silage) and abit of contracting to help cover the cost of running one. The one that has stood out to me above the rest is the Sumo GLS due to plenty of good reviews and watching videos of it in action, has anyone here got first had experience of them? Reason I like the sumo is the staggering of the legs so not to lift slabs and that you can fit a seeder unit! Also for contracting has anyone got any current rates for what I should be charging? What are the Wear rates of metal and current cost And if someone could offer a Sward lifter with seeder would there be the work for the seeder unit or not bother with it. I live in a area with mainly beef and dairy units all around me(south west) Lastly running it with a old ford tw what weight would I need to look at putting on the front? [/QUOTE]
