Here is my 1937 Farmall F30 with an IHC #20 mounted picker. The picker is pretty worn, all of the chains are rusted solid and most of the sprockets are beyond worn out. But there does not seem to be very many of this picker around anymore. There is a restored picker like this on an F30 in Harold Warp's Pionee...

Where can I find a v belt for the fan that runs off of the gear box on a 316 husking bed? thanks Mark.

It's wintertime. My mind wanders this time of the year. What can I say..... First and foremost I am an IH guy. One of the items on my must-have list is a mounted picker. I really like the 2MH, I know the 234 is the best unit (and I have an 856 that I could put a narrow front on and mount the 234) but there's so...

Just curious, when a 2MH picker is mounted on a M/Super M/400/450, how tall is the elevator sticking out the back? Is it better to remove it from the tractor before you haul it? Was wondering how folks haul their pickers to shows and so forth. Al

I just bought a NI 319 picker with a sheller attachment. How hard is it to remove the auger section from the unit for transporting it? Thanks, Mark.

Does anyone have a link to a video or other reference on how to remove husking rollers from New Idea 324 12 roll husking bed?

I currently pick 6 to 7 acres of ear corn a year to grind and feed calves. I'm using a CASE model P and I'm looking to upgrade a lil. My neighbor has a good Allis Chalmers model 33 mounted picker With WD brackets and I happen to have a WD that doesn't have much to do..... So what is the value of this picker? Pros c...

I've been replacing the wood that the gathering chains run on my picker. Several years ago I removed the chain that drives the trash bed under the husking rolls and a chain that runs the ear corn elevator from the front of the trash bed. I glance at it once in awhile and wonder how do the chains go on. Wou...

This is what followed me home last weekend. It's a 1952 6A. It needs a few things, but it obviously has not sat outside much. Most of the colored parts are still the right color and the original wood bottom in the wagon elevator is still intact. Unfortunately I won't be able to get it inside till sprin...

Bought this 2ME on Monday. Hope to get it home soon. Found this thru a post on Facebook. It was advertised on craigslist. It is a very very nice picker that has not seen many acres.

Could the powers that be do something about the spam concerning bran machines, rice mill machines, and so forth? Picking season will be here shortly and this year's activities might just as well appear uncluttered.

What little I know about corn pickers, I know that the mounted pickers are HEAVY. And there are lots of stories out there about tractors breaking rear axles with a picker on them. Was there a make of picker that was worse for breaking axles than others? Which brand tended to be heavier, IH, New Idea, John...

Just wanted to say hello, I discovered this forum the other day. I live in eastern NC. There are not a huge number of pickers around, but a few. When I was growing up my great-uncle had a JD 100 (the one without the husking bed) that he ran with an Allis D-15 and I was always fascinated by it. I collect IH, my fa...

Picked 2 wagon loads of corn with the 6000 this week and got some video. Picker worked great. The 6000 and the 12 roll husking bed is sure a big step up from the 961 and 8 roll bed. The field only averaged about 80 bushels but had spots that were probably 125+ and some low spots that was almost 0. Way too wet thi...

What are the wire cribs worth these days? 18 by 18 or 15 by 20, with and without roofs. I'm looking to buy some that's why I'm asking.
