That is a mean L3. I think you've had it on here before? Does it get really wet there that they need duals for flotation? It looks like the duals sit a bit off the ground so they only hit when they start to sink.

Odd seeing a combine that small with duals. I'm thinking for its when it sinks up in soft ground. As they are smaller than the inside tires. There isn't many F series combines left in my area now. Most are gone to something newer and larger.

It looks like the duals sit a bit off the ground so they only hit when they start to sink. Yeah the outer tires are smaller so they only touch the ground when needed and therefore the drive isn't overloaded. It is common practice down here to do the same on the green four row cotton pickers (9970, 9965, etc.) to help improve stability and flotation. It can get pretty hairy in the bottom fields during the fall especially when you throw tropical storms and hurricanes into the equation.

Most are gone to something newer and larger. No cotton this year and grain acres are rising every year so a new silver bullet may not be to far away. I need to find an E or K for myself to mess around with soon!

Our guys still planted cotton. They always do to a degree. Might be more or less each year. Most farmers been getting the R2 series down here. Like the R52 is very popular. Some are getting the R50s as well. As for the other brands its the JDs.
