Deere-est Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 Sorry I missed your Topic Gavin. All the best in the new job. I hope it brings more rewarding times than the last job you had and it is a healthier place to work both physically and mentally. Look forward to seeing pics of what looks like a nice modest machine line-up mate. Good Luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 What a fleet - and a 7840 pushing out 145 :o - looking forward to the pictures Best of luck with it Gav Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Thanks guys Heres some pictures from today, first up is the TSA135 sporting powershift gearbox and twin beacons on the Bunning dump trailer. This is the nicer of the two out fits having all round suspension on the tractor and being much quieter than the McCormick, the 33mph travel speed is nice too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nashmach Posted March 1, 2007 Share Posted March 1, 2007 That TS-A has 7840 wheels on it though most have solid rims Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Next up the McCormick MC135 Power 6 and Baileys dump trailer, not a bad tractor but noisy and rough riding, not a patch on the TSA \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 That TS-A has 7840 wheels on it though most have solid rims It has indeed, I was talking to the boss about that tonight, he says it did have solid pans/rims on it to start with but they cracked up and shattered around the centres so they went back to these ones at NH's and the dealers expense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gav836 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Just for you Marky, as requested some pictures of the Baileys Dump trailer The second pic is of the chassis, at the back are two axle mounted rams that transfer weight onto the back pair of wheels to make it more stable in theory, I was told it usually does the opposite on rough ground \ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gav836 Posted March 1, 2007 Author Share Posted March 1, 2007 Thanks Gavvy... very similar to my Bailey Trailer... mine is an 8tonner... what size is that mate I believe its a 12 tonner Marky, I'd rather use the Bunning to that one though, just a much better towing trailer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
