powerrabbit Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 I think the JD would be more acceptable if there was front linkage then the weight could be put on the linkage like the Axion but as said before, the Axion is by far the better and more desirable looking model.

I know mate but I am biased. It is a good idea to put a linkage on one only, varies the range. Going to add the display in mine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted December 31, 2008 Share Posted December 31, 2008 One thing I did notice on both of these models is that the drawbar slides up and down vertically. They could make the boxes a bit thicker/stronger for the money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MDFord Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 Can't wait to get my hands on the Deere, to use a previous quote "by far the better and more desirable model" And personally I think the block weight looks good on it Might get the Claas \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted January 1, 2009 Share Posted January 1, 2009 weights may have been ok say 3 years ago, but last visit i made to the jd dealers ( masons) i can only remember 2 big tractors with weights, the rest all had front linkages on them, must have been 10 sat there, with others on pallets readyu to fit, so clearly they have become the more acceptable on front compaired to weights, even at tuckwells in nov when i poped in was the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

After all I shall buy the JD because is so good. It'll be my first and hopefully only JD in the collection, hoping Wiking or Wiese don't produce any other JD models.

Deere-est Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 What, you mean tey put the tyres on the right way round but forgot the reverse drive option?!! :D That is bad, that is very bad in all honesty. I think the guys on the assembly lines need posters of the tractors they are making adorning the walls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted January 21, 2009 Share Posted January 21, 2009 i guess when your putting say 1500 sets of wheels on in a day with low wages accidents will happen, at least they are both the same way round, not one of each, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
