That is exactly the information that needs to get back to Stein*r Tractor and obviously you did that. From my communication with Stein*r Tractor, it does sound like they are continuing to correct these sorts of manufacturing problems. How long ago did you help that guy fix his 530 JD gauge? If it was some time ago, it would be nice to know if they have started selling a better one now.
Unfortunately with OEM out of business now, we don't have a lot of other options so we might have to do our best to work with Stein*r--like it or not. The one thing Stein*r Tractor does do is stand behind the product by replacing defective units.
Price point is important if you want to be successful--especially when there is a lot of competition in the market place. I recently considered reproducing an obsolete part for 1977-79 Ford trucks. This particular part is in demand because it is no longer available and are nearly impossible to find used. Ford originally sold the part for approximately $450 and in todays world there is no way I could sell it for less and still make a small profit. Once the interested parties found out the price, guess what......crickets. It was a bit of a lesson in human nature and economics at the same time. Yes, I am one of those guys would pay $120 for a high quality gauge but there are a lot of guys who would rather pay $40.

I’d probably plowed about 3000 acres (in my head anyway) by the time they found me. This is where my love for tractors started and has only gotten worse in my tender 50 yrs on this “green planet”. I’m par
