    JD Van Brunt 3pt conversion

    I looked at my 3pt hitch rating, and the weight of the grain drill. I decided it would be better left as is. My mama used to tell me to leave it alone or it will bite you, but I got bit alot. This is one time I think I will leave it alone so it wont bite me. It would be nice to pick it up...

    John Deere 71

    I checked the bushings and they are installed and good. I found the bolts unbelievably tight, loosened, then tightened to where I thought they should be and now the left unit acts like the right unit. I can also get my toobar down to the planting height of 18". Thanks for the help.

    JD 246 planter

    I have found a sound JD 246 planter. Is it capable of planting corn, soybeans, millet, and sunflowers? Are parts still available? This one is on a 3 pt hitch and has always been barn stored, and any idea of the weight?
