Engine is real good as is power steering, Tin is fair and that is all I have been told! Does anyone sell good repro front grilles or has anyone any good originals for sale? Sam [Reply]   [No Email]

See it in action hauling hay bales last fall in this video. ' http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQvkRnCJHLU I use it all winter to feed the bales. [Reply]  [No Email]

I saw one for sale at Glamis Extravaganza the other week, first time I"d seen one, it had the Perkins 300 engine, a bit scruffy but with decent back wheels on it would look awsomely like a 65 on steriods.

I have it bought but he is evading the issue when I ask if the lift works! Guess what that means? This one was in Cheffins Harrogate sale in Aug 2010 but not sold. It looks quite straight in photos but the front axle looks to be lying backwards, maybe a bit of bushing work needing done. If I do get it home then there will be 2 super 90s in Ireland!

I would be wary of one with multi power. MP parts can be had but are scarce. No reproduction grills but salvage ones show up on ebay from time to time. I have 3 90's all diesels 1 standard 2 high arch 2 with multi power. [Reply]  [No Email]

If it is weak you will have steering but the pto will stop or slip whenever you turn the steering wheel. I haven't replaced the pump on mine yet but then I don't use it on pto jobs.
