Tractorman810 Posted March 6, 2006 Share Posted March 6, 2006 thers a guy down here who leaves the header out in the rain all year round,not on a trailer either,just resting on pallets,never seen it done before,and must take ages to free up and oil for the season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Id be chuffed to bits with that SP, I know it's only a header trailer but you have made it down to a tee. The extending drawbar is a nice touch mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
