Hi JDSeller,
I have read your posts for years, I have really come to respect you for your knowledge regarding farming and JD equipment in general, as well as family and doing the right thing in tough situations. I believe that you are respected highly among this YT community. I have a question for you...
I have just bought myself a JD 7000 6 row 30" planter. It came with 6 JD corn meters, some with broken belts and bad brushes, it also came with 6 JD soybean cups. I'm not interested in using the soybean cups at all, I am looking for new bean meters. I have found used Kinze meters for $80 ea or used JD bean meters for $100 each. The seller of these meters says they are complete and usable, but should be calibrated for accuracy. Which meters would you recommend?
Also, I'd like to have my corn meters repaired and calibrated. They did come with new belts, but will likely need new brushes and who knows what else. Also, once I get my hands on some soybean meters, I'd like to have them looked at and calibrated as well. Are you interested in looking at my meters and doing the repairs and calibrations as needed? I'd be happy to pay you for your troubles as well as the postage to get the meters shipped each way. If your not interested, that is certainly not a problem, but could you point me in the direction of someone who maybe able to do this for me? Or explain to me how it is done, so that I could do it myself?
I'm a small scale farmer, (75 acres of corn and beans total) but I really want to do the best job I can on those 75 acres. Accuracy, timeliness and efficiency are my main focus when doing these crops.
I'd appreciate any help or ideas that you maybe able to offer me. my email is open if you'd like to communicate that way.

Today's Featured Article - Listening to Your Tractor - by Curtis Von Fange. Years ago there was a TV show about a talking car. Unless you are from another planet, physically or otherwise, I don’t think our internal combustion buddies will talk and tell us their problems. But, on the other hand, there is a secret language that our mechanical companions readily do speak. It is an interesting form of communication that involves all the senses of the listener. In this series we are going to investigate and learn the basic rudimentary skills of understanding this lingo.
