That's right KMC and Hobbs/ Amadas 8557 is the only ones you can get factory parts for. However some parts are getting obsolete on the older 2 rows , not available or can be made by special order and its not very cost feasible for some replacement parts. I was checking for parts availability and cost to repair a Hobbs 8557 I found for sale. Machine would run but shaker pan was questionable along with some other items that needed mechanical attention . The shaker pan on the 2 row was more costly to repair than a 4 row shaker pan.

Whats your thoughts and advice on a Roanoke Hustler 2000 and 5000? I have heard they were really good machines and the Hustler 5000 was the leading picker to have back in its day. It would do a combination of pick earlier, faster and clean better than the KMC and Hobbs Amadas 8557
