Cluster gear in gear box on some x93 heads was stronger, would hold up to knife rolls better. I think 1998 was cutoff there not sure tho. Poly is nice, have a late 643 with poly, knife rolls, oil bath, it’s a nice head wish I had calmer knife rolls tho.
+1... getting the benefit from the cluster gears depends on what rolls will be on the head. Plus the couple grand for new poly is halfway towards a decent 693 with hydraulic deck plates, pto drive shafts and single point hookup. Also depends on what combine the op wants to run it on.
Ty’s lucky since he got a great deal on used poly! |
