Hello everyone, i am pretty new to the forum, not got round to intro myself and not too hot on the old computer!!!!!!
Anyway heres my first attempt. I am having great thoughts about a box to go behind my D4,BTD6,and two artic tractors. Hydraulic would be needed, the CAT 40? i guess is very rare,i missed an international box which Brocks at Thaxstead had a few years back, any other ideas,and are they all going to be as rare as hens teeth???????????

Regards John

Hi John, I have an Onions hydraulic box that goes behind my D4D. I was very lucky to find it as they are very rare now.
The best way to get a hydraulic box is probably to convert a rope one over. I wish you luck with your search :thumbs_up:

That's a nice looking late D4U tractor by the look of it, not the more common wartime 7J, 2T or 5T models. I would imagine it could be quite rare in UK ?
