tubes for older IH corn planter

Charlie M · Jun 11, 2009

I've got what is probably a pretty old 4 row IH planter that I need to replace both the fertilizer and seed tubes. I don't know what the model is. It has a mechanical lift but the markers have to be lifted from the seat using a rope. Anybody know who might have the tubes available. I'll probably have to rely on pictures and over all length to get ones that work.

I have heard some say that you have to go to the hardware store and buy tubes and make you own. Don't think they are available now. I could be wrong for a particular model.

If you are using it, and not showing it, I would use plastic expandable tubes from the big box store. They need to extend and compress when the planter is tripped, so measure the length difference, and make sure they will do the job. They may need to be attached at the bottom to be stretched downward, but that is OK. JimN
