Tractorman810 Posted February 19, 2006 Share Posted February 19, 2006 it would be nice sean but that would mean sacrificeing the lift lever to have larger wheels on a fixed bar unless you can re-drill the ROS wheels to the same diameter as the original 362 rears to use the same fittings & even then i'm not certain they'll fit i'll have a look for you,got 2 spare sets anyway,might be able to make the right size centres for you out of plastistrut if needed ,up to you mate Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 Liking your work Marcus, the detailing on the cab is just right. Really sets her off. Doesn't look anything like it's predecessor now so you have achieved exactly what you set out to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't look anything like it's predecessor now so you have achieved exactly what you set out to. shame that britains messed the masseys up quite badly really ,the 135 was a gem,the 500 series was fair - good,the 26's were great,but it was a mistake not doing a 600 or a 200 series as these were some of the best selling tractors of their time , no 30 series ,then the 362 came around ? how many 362's do you see for real ? then dropped a real clanger with the 3680 but picked up the baton again with a good 6180 i say good the re-positioning of the linkage lever was a mistake i feel .

Tractorman810 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 you do tend to see a few 362's and 75's being used by local councils ,well down this way anyway,but they wern't really farm tractors were they ,prehaps thats why they made them becusea peps saw them out cutting the local playing fields Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
