What are the options out there for auto/assisted steering for older machinery that isn’t auto steer enabled?
I’m talking Trimble EZ steer type system.
Thanks.

agOpenGPS the cheapest by far. Motorised steering wheel, valve block or even a simple motor turning your existing wheel.What are the options out there for auto/assisted steering for older machinery that isn’t auto steer enabled?

he will,dont worry about thatAmbitions to make it auto steer @DrDunc ?
What make?Cheapest will be feed bags tied to be fence posts either end of the field
(I've agopengps. Highly recommend it. Though I use it only as a lightbar, no steering assist, it's very accurate despite being very cheap)

It's an open source autosteer, mapping, section control, variable rate etc. software.
Chose you make of animal feed based on the color of the bag. Preferably a single bold bright color that strongly contrasts nicely to the fence, hedge, etc surrounding it. What the animals think of the feed that came in the bags is a secondary concern. 4farmers are quite good, though you really need to turn the bags inside out to make the signal as clear as possible.What make?
£5-6K now I guess?If my tractor is auto steer ready with valve block and wheel angle sensor what sort of cost would it be to set up? Not that technically minded tho So it takes a bit of getting my head round.
Hardware for that, if you did it yourself, less than £500If my tractor is auto steer ready with valve block and wheel angle sensor what sort of cost would it be to set up? Not that technically minded tho So it takes a bit of getting my head round.
Kubota we’re wanting 8k for an unlock code and antenna which I though was a bit over the top When I enquired.
We have Fieldbee on a Claas Arion 630 it’s taken a bit of sorting but it’s now working well. My son says it’s better than the Trimble set up we have and half the price.
