I have an old MF, no model number. Ground drive so I can load it with the tractor and spread with the truck. I've already got $107.50 tied up in it over the past 4 years, including the purchase.

Better watch that high roller spending Dun, :lol: sounds like that ole girl has earned her way.

We had an old New Idea ground drive for years , Now we have a New Idea pto spreader both were bought used at farm sales for not much. You can find lots of good used spreaders at farm sales.

We've been looking around for one without much luck. A smaller model NH with plastic floor, double Chains and a tailgate. Running right $9,950

Well I picked up a NewIdea model 19 pto this weekend for FREE. It has a bearing out of the gear box. All I have to do is make a new one and it should be fine. It is actually in pretty solid shape. At the same place I got a john deere loader model 46,its alittle rough $200.00. :shock: But these are the kinda projects I like. I have to make some mts to put on my 706 IH.Ithink I will try to copy Westendorfs or something close.

Copy their design but not their materials. Talk about junk

 

[RAWCJW]

Dun what brand would you reccommend copying? I would like to make it quick detach. The original design detached at the rear axle but my tractor is to long so I have to do something any

 

[dun]

Westerndorf is a good design to copy, it's the materials they use that suck. It was one of the easiest quick detachables I've used but I'm getting pretty attached to a JD 520 now.
