Popular Post frictionman Posted April 3, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted April 3, 2014 (edited) I spotted this fertilizer spreader and had to get pictures. It is at a business and they were closed.

rsb502 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 If its on blocks and blocked in theyre not using it, just think how cool it would be to pull into a truck show with a 5th wheel on that thing! 1 Quote "Any Society that would give up a little LIBERTY to gain a little SECURITY will Deserve Neither and LOSE BOTH" -Benjamin Franklin"If your gonna be STUPID, you gotta be TOUGH" "You cant always get what you want, but if you try sometimes you get what you need" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frictionman Posted April 8, 2014 Author Share Posted April 8, 2014 Had a visit with the owner/builder. Robert from Thompson Fertilizer bought the halliburton R700 with 290 cummins and 13 spd and he had two Oshkosh front axles. He cut the two axles so that they could be welded back together making one longer axle. He then created a transfer case from a planetary unit in line at the carrier brg with a chain to the front shaft. The bugs are not worked out of it yet and he pecks away at it in his spare time. A very nice fellow. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
