Subject: New to us planter project (pics)

New to us 1770nt 16 row. Over the last 3 weeks iv gone through and gutted everything on the fertilizer opener hub, replaced quite a few tires on them, new blades, and the boot. Adjusted the pinch point on the tru vee openers, replaced the gauge wheel arms and rockers, and the bushings for the closing wheels. It is pro drive so only had to replace a total of 4 chains. Re ran all new fertilizer hose and put on John blue flow gauges. The only precision equipment we put on were Esets.
Using a 2600 display just for the planter. Run all the auto steer through the Trimble 500.
I think it's finally field ready! Had some left over test plot seed we didn't like so I put a little in and tried everything out. First and probably last time I plant in January let alone in a wheat field
