His e-mail is pominiatuurbow@gmail.com. I haven't contacted him myself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul Palmer Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 Looks like you will have to get headlights and add the small MF decal on the grill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tractorman810 Posted August 6, 2023 Share Posted August 6, 2023 yeah mines all uh based on a 3080 chassis , 690 bonnet extended, seen others on various chassis, not a uh 2000 one yet mind. they werent as big compared to a 2000 series MF from memory ?, we did try a 26?? to replace the 1250 but never did,the 1250 was better for what we needed , this is why i went the route i did, bar being longer bonnet wise, height wise and width i do not really remembers ours being much bigger overall to the pair of 690, and the swb 698t we had, just more grunt. wheel wise all ours were identical sizes rear wise , so puncture wise we could swap easily to keep going, with very flinty soil punctures were common , cant remember if the 690’s went up or the 699 came down size wise on the rears mind, been a good few years now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
