International 56 planter fertilizer hoppers

[oldfarmall]

Hello-

Can anyone confirm that a two row International 56 corn planter ever came with fiberglass fertilizer hoppers? All I have seen are steel hoppers that rot out. Would fiberglass fertilizer hopper from a 4 row 56 planter fit on a two row, bolt right up? Thanks in advance!

Yep they did & the hopper should be a match between the two & four row,.

Thanks, I have a pair of 4 row 56 planters. I have located a 2 row for my neighbor, but the whole bottom of the steel fertilizer hopper is rotted away. The seller has another steel hopper, but it has some small holes in it. It would be fixable, but wondered if the fiberglass would transfer from a four row to 2 row. Thanks!
