A while back, somebody posted a picture of a 2255 hooked to a JD 1210A grain cart. IN the words of Yogi Berra, I thought "Deja vu all over again". If I can figure out how to do it, here is a picture I took of my rig.

Not to scare you but last spring I saw a broken drawbar off a 2255 thanks to a grain cart. Saw the tractor and drawbar but no cart so no idea on the size of the cart.

How does this compare? It's a 500 BU spreader on our 1855. That was just last weekend...

You probably don't want any big hills to traverse.
I posted my pic just because another 2255 owner posed his with the same model grain cart.

That is an odd co-inky-dink.

We have pretty flat land here, but there is road travel involved. Can't stop on a dime with that thing. Rented it for 2 days and brought it back, all of it was done.

The cart holds 350 Bu or so. That model was built by United Farm Tools.
