MODELFARMER Posted January 23, 2011 Share Posted January 23, 2011 As topic title, my 6930 needs a front linkage I want to run with stonefork on front, or furrow press with the seed drill and my weight block when ploughing, I think 3.5 Tonne will be big enough Has anybody here any tips on existing experience of different makes?? And if you know of a good 2nd hand one anywhere i'd be grateful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catkom3 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I doubt it'll be to small,that's Exactly the same front linkage John Deere use on the 6000 series tractor's http://www.zuidberg.nl/eng/fotos.php?tractormerk=John%20Deere&tractortype=6530-6630-6830-6930 Regards Joe.

MATTY 7530 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Laforge front linkages seem too be a good job, or a wilson all depends if you want a fold up one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 :D :D kerrrrrrr *****... * sound of penny dropping * Well done Joe... gave us all a laugh anyway mate.... you can go to the top of the class for that.. Oh.. and wear this 'special hat' ..... it's pointy with a D on it :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roberthenning Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Zuiderburg seem to be pretty much the best in them. Why dont you give nelson alexanders a call, they sometimes have good second hand ones that would do a turn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I have a Zuidberg on my 6920s Ricky, got absolutely no complaints with it at all, in fact its one of the few things on the tractor that isn't trouble ;D Make sure that you get one that has double acting rams on it though, you'd be surprised how handy that can be in certain situations and check to see how it will be plumbed in as mine is hard plumbled into the back of the spools with a changeover block, better than having it on probe ends into a spool itself.

MODELFARMER Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 Hmm yes good thinking, Gav Sell me yours you don't really need it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 Oh yes I do, I have 1200kg of weights hanging on it at the minute for ploughing, its also the only way to pick up and move my furrow press as none of the rear linkages drop low enough when its on the ploughed work. Once you have a front linkafe you'll be surprised as to how much you do use it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MODELFARMER Posted January 24, 2011 Author Share Posted January 24, 2011 well at the minute the only thing i have for it is front weight and stonefork, haven't priced yet but i wonder if the 5t version is worth extra money? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jakescot Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 well at the minute the only thing i have for it is front weight and stonefork, haven't priced yet but i wonder if the 5t version is worth extra money? you know it makes sense.......... with all the extra steel you might not need such a big block in front! ...oh and of course for lifting those extra big boulders on your fork. don`t mind me I couldn`t resist, I somehow doubt if you need the extra capacity but probably worth pricing just in case its not that much more money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MODELFARMER Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 I'll prob get or make a furrow press for the front eventually In fact I have just had a lethal idea, TOP SECRET all the same Links requires, followed by the welder hhhhmmmmmm :-X Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Just out of interest Ricky, what is the maximum front axle loading for a 6930 as I'd imagine with a 5t front linkage it would be getting close when loaded up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MODELFARMER Posted January 25, 2011 Author Share Posted January 25, 2011 Its £100 more for a 5tonne Not sure on the loading Gav, I'l hardly be lifting that kinda weight anyway, its just for the comfort of power, if you know what i mean?

Gav836 Posted January 25, 2011 Share Posted January 25, 2011 Yeah I know what you mean Ricky, for that much extra in cost it may be worth going for though no matter what. Unsure what capacity mine is without having a look on it but never short of lift. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
