I know, I know I am just a farmer trying to hold some old equipment together. But recently I needed a new Detachable link chain for my Brillion drill seeder. Probably the same size as used on the Van Brunt grain drills.

The service department has been looking for some shop work and called yesterday to see if I'd bring in the 4450 for some leaks that I had complained about. I just told them it was to old and I'd check with the horse and buggy amish that live nearby.
