Looking to change up my combine from a TX66 for more output. Looking at NH CX 6090, 8080 etc and then Claas six walker machines around 2012-2014 age? Anyone have any preferences on what I should be looking for or not?

Anybody know if there is a Claas equivalent to this Renault? Or at least a Claas with an identical back end? Can't get a service or parts manual and want to know what's involved in removing the hydraulic lid in case there are any ''nasties'' to look out for! It's constantly correcting the...

Looking at a new rear 3 pt link mounted 2.4m disc mower, no conditioner. Limited to 2.4m for storage reasons and a few small and difficult to access patches we do. Currently use a Kuhn PZ170 and while it makes a nice job it's too slow. Still wanting a clean cut but bigger drum mowers look...
