right.the cart tractor was a deere 4640, the cart was probably 800-900 bu (it could unload all 3 combines)
They were also running Deere 9600 and 9610 combines. I don't know about the headers.

Well that's your problem...buahaha you sure it was a 4640 and a 800bu? thats alot of cart of not alot of tractor! iv got 3 dumps on a 750bu cart before, and it was more like 700bu, because you can hardly ever fill a "square" cart up full like you can a longer 1000bu cart

I've pulled a Brent cart with wet corn running over on each side (right around 750-800bu) with a 4650 - just don't make real good time, steer with the brakes, and pucker up the first bump you hit. They finally stepped up to an 8200 a couple years ago and now this year will be pulling it with a smaller 4WD JD (9x00?).
That is of course assuming they ever get done with soybeans. I'm trying to save up some PTO so I can spend time in the semi hauling wet corn again but the way the weather is looking they might be combining the corn in the spring.

yeah, the engine will pull it, it will be a load, thats for sure, but it will pull it. but thats not what i would be worried about. what i am worried about is the draw bar. the amount of weight that is put on the draw bar that it wasnt designed for is immense. like we tell all of our workers, we would rather have the combine have to slow down or stop, rather than bust a draw bar and have to have the tractor down until we can replace it. so we make sure all of our workers slow the fuck down in a rough spot and if they are heavily loaded, just take it easy, we will understand if they are late getting back to the combine

the combines were a 9600, 9610, and a 670b, which have hoppers of 240, 240, and ~300 bu. The cart could take all 3 combines, full.~900bu with a 4640? im not saying you are lying, but i would have to see pictures.
