West Texas | Just replaced linkage pins and balls on a 8420 with only 4000 hrs. It has never pulled anything in the drawbar. Have an 8300 left that has had the arms and all pins replaced with only7000 hrs.
The 55/60 series we traded a few years ago were so worn out they needed everything on the 3-point repaced. Including the piece that held the toplink on the tractor and the rockshafts and all that goes with it. They weren't safe to use anymore thats how bad they were worn.
When we do disc or run the fieldcultivator it is hooked to the Cat 99% of the time.
It doesn't see that much 3 point work although I did run the 886 row crop cultivator with it across 1 field. Before autotrack I use to list with it a lot as did one of the other guys. Now we plant flat. | |
