ihatepoundland Posted September 2, 2006 Share Posted September 2, 2006 Nice one Sean! I wonder if the tyres off of the rear of a JD 4020 or the MF1800 would suit if you wanted to go with something narrower, rest looks really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deere-est Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I hate nights out now, its official. Hate hate hate. Topics like this require me to be sat down, at home, paying full attention. Sean it sounds VERY exciting, you seem to realise what you predict so bloody well. Wish I could see the pics. Andy, I regret to make you aware I am leaving on the grounds of not having enough time on FTF. You with me lads?! :-D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
