Look at one lonely farmers videos, OLF, he had a Hesston baler for a while and pretty much rebuilt it. You could probably learn a few things from him.
Ya I’ve seen a few of his videos for sure thanks for the recommendation.
Wes knows his way around 4900s
I know way too much about them! We've got one, 60k on it.
Worst thing is, there's not many parts available now. We replaced stuffer springs 2 years ago, got the last one in AGCOs system and the last one in C-NH s system. Had hydraulic tension issues last year, was lucky enough to find someone that had the last parts for that.. and load bars are no longer available, we've run 2 years on just one.
Id love to update to a 2170 or 2290. Would like a 3x4, but we've run 4x4 for 25+ years.
