Re: Re: Important

I run @ 3mph on beans w/ a 30' header, little more or little less depending on conditions...corn is a crap shoot..I run a 8 row corn head and depending of I am in 45 bu crap corn or 240 corn my speeds vary greatly. Good maintence and lube is the key to anything. I got over 11K hours out of my John Deere tractor before it needed an overhaul. It was a one owner unit and had impecable upkeep. There is not a lot of sit and idle time in these things (combines), we do 75% or more of our unloading on the fly, so if its running it is likely shelling!


That info on the parts is greatly appreciated, it just came out of the shop preseason and those are about the only damn things that were not replaced.


Cheese "costs a lot to be this poor" Man

~4mph in 220bu avg corn yesterday. Grain cart couldn't keep up, kept having to stop. 963 head.

Usually around 3.5 in beans unless they're really tough. 1020 head.

the motor in this is slightly modified. Lol

A somber reminder that life is short. All of us traveling home from Moab drove past him, whether still alive or deceased. Hug your family today.

Yep, and the problem with that tool is he would have taken someone innocent with him.

I always wondered about stuff like that. With no services for miles and just an interstate how anyone would find you.

IF it makes you feel better. I don't think any of you MWC guys drove past him. I think that news story is wrong. He was on the west side of Green River, not the east side.

Either way it's indeed sad. Such a horrible way to go.

thanks again for the info, I will be looking a bit deeper into this once we get through this harvest. I too am running a 1020 head (30') but running a ragged out 983 that had the field tracker conversion installed...it is like the yearly money hole...totally needs rebuilt or just scrapped

Drove my Grandma to a few things in her car this morning (2009 Accord with almost 29k on it), forgot how nice it was to drive a car that doesn't let you feel every single bump in the road.

After a week and a half of the smooth ride of Ben's 2001 Chrysler Sebring, I was anxious to get back to my Jeep.

Guess I just like it rough... lol
