4x4forks 258 #1 Posted April 26, 2020 Big job on! farmer Friend let us have a play to set up and test plough. Only another 30 acres to go! Oh and he has now told me that it has only been cultivated twice in 5 years as it is the heaviest wettest field on the farm. video-1587900855.mp4 2 nigel and Cub Cadet reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #2 Posted April 26, 2020 Nice bit of ploughing. Well turned over and very little grass/stubble showing. 1 4x4forks reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4x4forks 258 #8 Posted May 1, 2020 Good effort. You made a great job of those. I just bought mine and painted them. Square shank bolts on order to fit neatly 1 Stormin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4x4forks 258 #9 Posted May 3, 2020 Just water ballasted the rear tyres and added another 35kg each side . I wouldn,t of beleaved that I could get that much weight out of just water ballasting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Stormin 4,458 #10 Posted May 3, 2020 Do you really need that much weight? Seems a bit OTT to me. That's 176lb a wheel. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4x4forks 258 #11 Posted May 4, 2020 I agree. I am currently mole draining my paddock and was interested weather it would help any further and yes it did. just waiting for it to dry again so the top dose not smear and once complete i will drain the tyres and remove the wheel weights for another day. video-1588582014.mp4 1 Stormin reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
