Talked to a person I know that farmed during those days. He did not think a 1/4 inch cut could be achieved without altering the feed roll drive ratio. My dad also always thought that is the reason most manufacturers came out with cylinder type units in the late 50's, early 60's. If I recall, you are the fellow that is doing this for some type of project. I just went to the JD expo here in NY, saw plenty of manuals for sale for older JD implements. I can't get back but maybe you could get somebody that could scout this for you. The alternative would be looking for a JD model 34 for your vintage JD chopper for this project. I take it the 1/4 inch cut has to happen for the sake of the farmer that is supplying the crop and silo. I actually have a similar aim with IH equipment from the early 60's. Let us know how things are progressing.
