those are great, couple ?s, what are the tires off of, and how'd you change them. I just got one of the swathers and am in the process of adding rails but I would realy like to change the tires.

the tires are off of a 7720 combine... you can pull like crazy or just cut them off from the inside with a dremel - hope that helps

i know i keep putting suggestions up, but you could make a swathe roller... the ones that fold down off the back axel system... that would complete the model!

for sure - i like suggestions - it crossed my mind - i thought of a tow behind those are more popular around here - might try one of each - also rear pivoting axle kit would be nice

there is a sneak peak of the 9501 in the pictures I added - completed the painted body rebuild, paint and decals... gotta finish the hitch, railings, chopper, and auger - hopefully it will be done tomorrow.

just curious.. how are the headers hooked onto the tractor units?

Post by bu on Aug 17, 2010 22:57:43 GMT -5
extend the notches that are already on the r450 with brass tubing painting green - the headers have the original c clasps

no problem - flatten the notches with a dremmel if you can that way the tubing fits better
