Your fencing looks very poor,The stays on your strainer post are only going to push the post out in time not hold it in.I'm not trying to up set you but if set the stays back more and wedged them into the strainer post so the stays are only 2ft above the ground were they wedge into the post and kept your post out in the paddock cut off at ground level you would'nt need the bit of wire for the stock to play with as it's the part in the ground thats suporting the strainer post not the bit above the ground.If stock push post out in the paddock you'll lossen the strainer post and so on and so on.

Your ok Light Land thanks for you input its always welcome we put the stays on the strainer as its on a bend we also put cement into the hole that the strainer sits in to hold it in place. Never though of what your saying when we put it up but what your saying is right but it will do our job for now.

Thanks Paulali yeah i try to keep it the best i can it never spends one night outside and it always washed after slurry/dung and fert spreading as the cabs on the MF 3000's loved rust  >:(

there's alot of MF 3000's around me a spud man beside me has 4 2x3095 3120 and a 3635 he loves them and all with over 10,000 hours on them  :D

its a credit to you,alot of contractors tractors where i live dont have 3 year old models as good as that

thanks paulali  its the only way to keep them if you look after them they will look after you ha ha! it takes alot of money now to change so that why we try and keep the big girl as clean as we can she could do with a set of wide wheels on the front but that the way we got her 7 years ago

whata cracking little leyland you have there,how long have you owned her then? ??? , and the 3085 is just as good i must say

Thanks Tractorman we have the leyland now coming up to 23 years and never put a foot wrong we use to load 1/2 tonne spud boxes with a box tipper on it when we grew spuds and it done all the hard work like ploughing with a 4f plough spread dung and use to cut are own silage with a kidd dubble chop

Great looking Fergie, keep the pictures coming. Your Leyland is on a P plate so was registered between Aug 1975 and July 1976.

Eurodeere thanks for you help on the year of the Leyland  i wish i knew were it was from and what work i did with the owners before we got it
