Few questions.

1100-1300 bushel grain carts, specifically Brent or J&M, who has the better designed tracks?

Will a 300 hp MFWD handle a 1300 bushel tracked cart?

How well do 9RT (two track) tractors work on grain carts?

Coming from a V1100 Brent on wheels looking to go one size bigger on tracks.


I like the extra height of a 4WD tractor so you can see filling up the semi. Less tall tractors and you only guess on how full the semi is. Less stress on the cart operator too. I guess if you are already using a MFWD, you may be used to the sight of the semi being filled or have a camera for that.
Our 1050 bu cart is a Kinze, I imagine they are all pretty good. And as far as power required, unless you have hills, 300 hp should do ok. Just dont expect to stop 1300 bu on a dime with any tractor...
