Tractorman810 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 you recon mate,wasn't to sure about the grill,but it needed something on front, as for the wheel spot on mate you were 100% right about the tims,the ros ones were a tad to thin to be honest,but they have found a new home on something i an mid way through,wich may lead to the 698t having new wheels to, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 one of the best selling 600 series tractors ,so it stands to reason you wouldn't be able to resist the challenge . Of course with all this extra machinery you'll have to open another yard of either a suckler unit ,a grain store or another pig finishing unit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 are the wheels on the 3070 from the tim's 42 ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted March 5, 2006 Author Share Posted March 5, 2006 yeah they are,on the newer 6140 stud axel chassis, easy to do mate,sand down the centre of a set of britains wheels from the chassis ,or a set of spare 362 front wheel i had ,more avaiable if needed once down to the centre spindles,drill out the centre of the tims wheels,to the smae diameter as the outer dia of the new drums,and tap into place,,i can take a set of pics if you want and post them , i would think i can do a set of ros wheels the same now i have masterewd it,of another set of tims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ihatepoundland Posted July 23, 2006 Share Posted July 23, 2006 I don't know if this will help anyone, but tonight I found out the ROS bodywork will fit on a JD 5410 with very little cutting..and they are one of the cheapest "proper" steering chassis out there Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
