I brought an old I-H ground driven spreader about 10 years ago at an auction. Sent my wife and brought over the cell phone when it sold. Sight unseen other than a picture and her answering my questions over the phone. Best 500 bucks I've spent.

I broke the apron chain once so I just take it easy on the o'l girl when loading it. I always dump the load from the front end loader when loading gradually. Rather then just dumping it on and leaving the bucket load still packed as to make it harder on the spreader when spreading. I also dump about a gallon of used oil on the wood bed a couple of times a year. Other wise I baby it but its worked good for me. I spread about 30 loads a year of steer manure with it. From what I have seen at auctions lately you won't get much on a spreader that is ready to work for under 750 bucks. There is alot of small timers like you and I that just want something small for a few animals.

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
