JC Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Looks good, but with the size of that header it might be better with two axles for the weight. \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnDeerePower Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 looking good how about possibly shortening the header trailer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 Would a header trailer of that size not have a dolly/turntable on the front? Only a minor criticism on a nice looking model Kiwi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted September 11, 2006 Author Share Posted September 11, 2006 Thanks guys. At the moment i have is est up so the 2 end guides to hold the headders on to the trailer hence why its so long. how can i shorten it and still hold it? i was thinking it needs to be a tandom. just have to find more wheels. thanks for the advice its all constructive to me and points me in the rite direction. on a side not can some one pm me how to resize my pics please. i just cant figure it out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Ok i think i have it now. here is the wheat headder Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 you wouldn't need to shortern it by much, maybe so the back end overhangs by a short amount, but they would be that size in real life for a header that big, why not try and copy the siku lexion 600 one as a base model? would give you a good ref point to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi6920 Posted September 12, 2006 Author Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thnaks for that TM810. I was thinking it should be a tandom axle with a dolly? and cut the back down abit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deere-est Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 Thnaks for that TM810. I was thinking it should be a tandom axle with a dolly? and cut the back down abit? I'd go with that Kiwi, that sounds better and better on the road too!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted September 12, 2006 Share Posted September 12, 2006 I'd go with that Kiwi, that sounds better and better on the road too!! tris imagine that rig in a lane down near menhenoit mate :D :D would it fit do you think go tandem at the minimum mate would be a pain to manovure otherwise as they are long headers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
