Combines I need a CHOPPER

Steve, I have installed a grate in the last position that has sections in it and this unit is sold by my local dealer and if you would like more info, just let me know. JWK

I suspect a lot of people have gone through the dilema you have. I did and looked at all kinds of so called solutions to not having a chopper. From what I saw none of them worked. Finally, in the spring of 1998 I bit the bullet and bought a new 2366 chopper for my late 1981 model 1460. I had to buy an old style quill shaft also, as the new one has only 3 splines, and the older ones had four. Since then I have never looked back. What a world of difference!!! No more tillage problems afterwards. looking back, I think that while expensive, it was a real good investment and the resale value improved significantly. At least my frustration level doing tillage afterward was reduced to virtually zero.

Hey steve, My dad and i had a Redekop chopper installed on a 1460 and i tell you what that thing has done wonders to spring tillage-for example before the chopper the feild cultivator would always clog up with soybean stalks but now not a worry its a thing of the past. weve had it three seasons now and the only thing i would really recomend you do if you get it is to keep the blades sharp other than that it looks like the newer choppers on the sts deere combines . oh ya dont set the rear axle all the way out because the rear tires dont need to be. anyway i hope this helps farming caseih
