Lord Ferguson Posted December 10, 2007 Share Posted December 10, 2007 Wicked pics Marcus.... I'm loving that 65.... it must be an S rather than an R i reckon... looks like a standard tractor front axle... could be wrong mind.. I'll be looking in my books in a moment... Loving that 185... she looks to be in fine fettle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJB1 Posted December 11, 2007 Author Share Posted December 11, 2007 thanks chaps will start takeing more now i can resize them ! phill, most of the work that way is covered by calne mill, it's only the organic stuff i run up there, even then if the loads are going the right way calne will also do the organic but have to collect from bridgwater MDFord ^ mart, thought the 56 would tickle yer fancy's oldford , yer going to have to have a few days off ill, or a sat morn to come for a ride round again mate tris , re;FDI ,i used one a lot at cricket malerbie farm, french built machine ,4w steer, crab& rear steer only options, cant remember the model number but it reflects the weight & reach of the machine eg ;2433= 2.4tns @ 3.3 mtrs . not a bad machine for loading dung on concrete or from the field, but a deadloss for silage clamps. 2 speed shuttle hydrostatic drive , worked well but when the oil warmed up ,a loss of performance would soon follow especially on slopes , very, crude example of joystick controll, bit like the early JCB's 1 lever to opperate two spools kind of arrangement . like most machines , the door windows never really lasted long & the internal boom hyd pipes were a bugger to replace . this was one of the last of this model, the range was revamped & recoloured to grey & orange , very similar in spec, but a bigger engine , same as before though , went well the first few years , but then loss in performance dictated that it was great at all the jobs except pushing up silage . for what it was it was a good tool , but was swapped for a merlo just after i left Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnP Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 Am I getting old or is the traffic getting worse ? 20 miles of tailbacks on the opposite side of the M60 (thankfully!) when I came back from Anglesey on Wednesday night. Even a small dink on the A63 created 3miles coming out of Hull tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think you are right John... we had a broken down lorry on the A14 the other morning... the traffic took a good 6 hours to clear afterwards :o - I don't reckon it can be too long befoe some areas get grid-locked at this rate \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
