Subject: RE: what brand of spreader box?


Sunnyside, WA
Gordon,

I'm almost positive its a Kirby out of Merced, CA. We have two of them and they have been alright boxes. Both are actually broken down right now--both hydraulic pumps for the fluid drive. One got a new pump put on 3 weeks ago and it already failed. I was told it was worked too hard by the guy who tore it apart. But this is in straw manure. Switching pump styles now from a bearing to a bushing style. We do haul alot of loads with them, so I'm not being too hard on them. The kind of "compost" Gary is using, they will spread a long time with few breakdowns.

I personally like our FSI box, it doesn't seem to have near the problems. I'll try to get pictures today if I remember.
