[QUOTE="clbarclay, post: 6664035, member: 6671"] Just adding a rear packer does not necessarily equal better depth control. I had one briefly on my mounted tine drill and quickly changed to depth wheels in amongst the times. With just a rear roller and top link the distance between the front times and the roller was enough for the front times to ride out of the ground several inches whe drilling rougher fields. Now the worst case depth variation from that has more than halved. Unless you do like simtech, bunch up the rows and have the rear times set into the packer, I think rear rollers are best used in combination with front rollers. Also when I was using the roller, it would ride the drill up a lot more over any lumps of trash. [/QUOTE]
