[Case Nutty 1660]

Had to haul some dirt to low spots on the field roads,, 430 was Happy to help out

That's a handy size dirt pan OP, how many yards does it haul? I wanted one for years but the few auctions I went to they sold for more than $4K. Then this Steiger dirt pan train came up on eBay and I got it for $7500 or so.
The rear pan doesn't have a gate so I leave it close to the ground when transporting dirt but it still leaves a trail wherever I go.
Do you have to rough up the ground to get it to load? I run my 4 bottom plow over fine soil to prep it and use the hoe or a box scraper with the scraffiers down in the stoney ground. It'll fill both pans in about 20 seconds if conditions are right. 12 yards at a time.

Id like to see pics of the front gate open
Got a home built one I picked up years ago but need to come up with some way to put a gate on the front

Nice twin can setup, Steiger sold some Quality stuff, and thats a Great buy. this one is small, 3/4 yard maybe, hady for small jobs though, I have built a lot of yard reconstruction, drainage, building site , road building with it over the years, also have a 4 yard unit , I have had a scraper of some type around to use since 1976, also ran TERX and CAT push-pull scrapers, 20-27 yard units yes I have to rip the ground at times to load it, here I was loading some what freshly stock piled dirt so it loaded easy

Here I was repairing a dam breach in a Family dam that is at least 116 years old now
