Just curious how much wider could you go before having to get a new rim? Assuming your going up to a 600?

Was going for 600s and the man in agrigear reckons the rim would take it no bother

@Reggie. How do you find the tuffmac dump trailer, I think I saw your landini on their Facebook page.

Believe it or not its sat in a shed since that day. Never used it yet but it's mainly used in winter for dung and the likes.

Looks good at a glance and only issues I've had were a few oil leaks from fittings and a few missing grease nibbles that I noticed when I went looking over it

In repainting a tractor cab,
Has anyone ever put a laquer on over the top coat of paint to protect it, it is it needed at all? Should the paint be good enough?

Are the two tyres that are flipped over some sort of dept gauge?

Yep. They flip forward and the ripper runs on them as a kind of depth guage

Those tyres have to be worth a few quid. I wouldn't like to be buying them new anyway...Advertise them now, while they're still on the tractor. If you get a buyer, it wouldn't take too long to fit the new ones.....

Tractor and trailer just goes along with the harvester now, 4 boxes on trailer. Haulm topper on front pto. Very quick operation at the moment. Lads currently out cutting corn until the rain arrives. Which looks to be any time now!

Would you not just run the mich at a slightly lower pressure to increase area or why go wider? Landini won't have the weight for big tyres, she wont get the power down, looking at their brochure they're 4.7T at operating weight. Just something to consider. Similar weight to the valtra and I wouldn't go past a 520 and I'd be on wet ground with very few hills.

Oh she will have no hassle getting the weight down with the powerharrow, guttler or tanker

Also that running weight is without any oil or fuel in her so you add upto 500kg extra onto that weight. My girl is running roughly 5.5ton at least full of fuel and myself in the cab.

After that you have the brackets for the loader

Not gonna admit how much weight I add
