    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

    oh a 4640 will probably pull 800bu but it sure won't like it and it'll be even angrier if you start up a hill. 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.

                    How about some broken parts? The apron shaft on the harvester broke last night. We had the new parts in the shop by 2:00am but then the fucking rain came.

                                Harvesters don't make the road muddy. I believe you confused harvesters with trucks. A common mistake...

                                        I drove the truck to the plant after it was removed from the ditch to dump it. I didn't put it in the ditch though.

                                          The truck drove just fine after getting out. Slow but that is normal.
