[AT] combine reels

[Al Jones]

John,

The JD people can probably tell you for sure but I have heard you can't get some parts on the 3300 anymore.  But yeah I bet the reels could be the same between the 3300 and 615.

>Went to look at a John Deere 3300 combine yesterday. Don't know too much about these machines, there weren't many sold around here. If you have any comments on it I'd love to hear them. All I know is the frame and engine is way smaller than my 55 JD. The cab is a lot more confining than my open station Deere, but I bet it is a lot less dusty :)
