I usually use the 4wd when I'm loading up for less disturbance of my work area. I have ordered a rear weight box as it happens... as I intend to go for a bigger capacity bucket in the near future. I'll post a pic when it arrives of course Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 I forgot to show you that I've now got my trailer back... and installed under the prep dewatering tower (wedgewire screen).. this is now replacing the Bailey which I am going to use for my spare (topsoil... carrots waste... compost etc.) Anyway... here it is in situ... I've had a filter installed inside so she drains away any excess fluid that leaches out of the pulp... 1 sheet of perforated steel... (2m x 1m) only £192 :o :'( It's had a bit of a spruce up.... a new towing eye (the old one was cream crackered to say the least.. New springs on the back (leafers)... thanks to Gavvers for the advice.. and you can see the new tyre there... it had a 625 combine wheel on one axle :o I have to say... I did a 30 mile trip with this today... 15 miles of which were FULLY loaded with carrots... and it tows a treat... wonderful in fact Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 thought one of them back wheels looked wrong when you bought it, so have you removed the mesh ect from the bailly then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Massey Boy Posted March 27, 2009 Share Posted March 27, 2009 Looks good with the same size wheels now What did you say the size is 10 tonner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lord Ferguson Posted March 27, 2009 Author Share Posted March 27, 2009 Yeah she's a ten tonner... I will be removing the mesh from the Bailey Sean... tomorow hopefully... but it all slots back in pretty easily... I won't be removing the ball valves from the underside... just incase I need to use it again on the waste Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
