Johnston 16x8 Silage Trailer
jack_c replied to jack_c's topic in Latest Implement Conversions & Scratch Builds
Awh now we can't be harsh like that Wouldn't think it would have been part of the product design specification, 1.1: Must be able to withstand a rough operator driving too fast, 1.2: The trailer must be able to withstand the forces involved when the drawbar sticks into the tarmac lifting the full trailer off the ground haha Thanks Just need a JF 1050 precision chop harvester to make a nice outfit... Now I wonder where I'll get one of those -

This is made by a small engineering firm not far from me, They are pretty comman around my area but I'm not sure about elsewhere, They are a nice light trailer for our wet land -

I managed to source some sheet material, Thanks again for the nice comments!! I think a nice Massey Ferguson 399 or a 4270 would look the part! I've a smaller 13x7 trailer in progress that the 390 would look very well on -

It would be a tight pull alright, A few extra hp wouldn't go amiss -

False alarm, Its now mid January according to masseyshop.com

So did anyone get a glimse of the Massey Ferguson 390 yet? What's the verdict? Any pictures?
-
That is a very tidy job! Its a credit to you, The detail is very good!
-
It would be just general work, Mainly field work fertiliser spreading, Rolling Topping etc Very little road work Biggest fear would be that she would be too light for wide tyres and leave no grip,

Cheers, Felt like a pratt when I realised haha

Can a moderator also please correct the title, Thanks

Have just bought a Massey Ferguson 3635 thats on Lawn tyres, The plan is to get a set of rims and agri tyres, My question here is what are people's opinion with regards width I think the tractor sits at around 3 tonne? Was considering 440 front 540 rear or do you think this is too wide in comparison with the weight? Any suggestions welcome, Thanks in advance
-
The problem is its a second hand tractor we've bought, At present it has the standard type ends but we are in favour of the hook type, The tractor in question is a 2009 Massey Ferguson 3635 so very unlikely to get full arms, It wouldn't be doing any seriously heavy lifting so hopefully if prep properly etc it should be ok?
-
This would be more appropriate for British Farming forum but I don't have a paid email address Hopefully the brains on here will be able to help, I want to change the standard ends on a tractor to the quick attach hook type, I have an arc welder but was wondering which rods should I be using for this job? Also would the pieces need to be pre heated before hand? Thanks in advance

That's a brave amount for a damaged tractor, Hope for whoever bought it it goes together nicely
