Tractorman810 Posted August 3, 2008 Author Share Posted August 3, 2008 thanks for the comments lads, shes been worth it i must say so far bar the bonnet no major problems for the joints mdford i just use normal revvel model filler, then 800 grade wet and dry to sand Crikey Sean, hell of a project to undetake but you seem to be on top of it. Going to look flipping great on that chisel plough when she's done mate, our 1200 at college blew lift ram seals all the time trying to lift a 4 furrow reversible but she handled a chisel fine. I love the wheels, they seem to be perfect to bve honest. I'm glad someone else gets mucky gluey finger prints everywhere too, I thought it was just me that was one major prob with a 1200, the famr next to one of ours told us so, but pointe dout it was one hell of a tractor and a new 1250 was due, hence why we held on and bought one, took the 5 furrow dodswell with ease, so much so next door also bought a 1250 once we had a seasons use out of it, 1250 could lift something like 30% more on the back end compaired to a 1200 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
