CallumC Posted July 25 Posted July 25 Here's some pics of our david brown 996. Myself and dad have been restoring it over the last 11 years very much on and off with life and other jobs getting in the way. Absolutely everything has had to be rebuilt or receive some kind of attention. It was a very much worn out tractor and had been used as a scraper tractor for a good number of years before we got it. Realistically it should have gone to the scrap yard or a nice warm country 3 Quote
robbo Posted July 26 Posted July 26 That is fantastic, I have always thought that the 995/996 were MF165 beaters, apart from the overly complicated hydraulics, I could never get my head around the system but they pulled far better and I just love the engine note. Quote

Oh I'm totally with you on the hydraulics it's a right faff about Quote
