Subject: Tuning up a JD 643 corn head


SE Nebraska
I've got an older high tin corn head. The snouts are really old, really worn. I 've debated several years putting on poly snouts. Where is the best, most cost effective place to get a poly snout kit?
Also have debated putting oil bath drives on. It looks like the tin covers can be had aftermarket for $120+/_. If I put the tin covers on, how do I seal up the side of the head to keep the oil in and the dirt out? There will be the slot where the chain adjustment idler slides, and I think maybe another hole or 2. I know i could seal it up with some good silicon. But in the case of the chain idler. That will need to be moved up and down. Not really lending itself to a permanent seal of silicon. Thanks for your time
