Subject: RE: Grain cart size for JD 4840?



thefarmers - 10/12/2023 21:17 Definitely big enough for a fertilizer spreader. We pulled an 8 ton with less than that. But here it wouldn’t pull a 11 shank anhydrous bar. Guy here used to pull 9 with a 4640.



Depends on the dirt.     We've pulled a 13 shank DMI NH3 bar with a 2-155 White 2wd before.   It didn't set any speed records but it did alright.


As for the cart, I wouldn't hesitate to put a 800-900 bu cart behind a 4840.   Maybe even 1000 if you can use your head about how full/fast you pull it and where.

Same 2-155 had a 780 Brent cart behind it for several years.   Only got stuck twice, both times in places it never should have been.
