[snowman]

hi has anyone fitted a new cowling as supplied by agriline and other suppliers just wondering how they fit and quality thanks

Now, be careful with what you say about suppliers

I will take the flak Kev!

If you read back in the archive you will find that someone wanted a Super Dexta cowl as the tractor was to be used at a wedding. A number of cowls were supplied that did not fit/looked wrong/etc. To their credit Agriline worked with the member and sorted the problem.

Most of the tin work parts from all suppliers have issues and no one seems prepared to address them. A lot come from the same source and are very poor quality. I bought a Dexta one only to find it is around 10mm smaller than the original so the filler hose slopes away from the radiator, the bonnet catches do not latch properly and the bonnet looks strange as it slopes down to the cowl. This came from another supplier.

If it is possible, work with what you have and repair it.

Have a look on ebay. Old ones come up quite often. Prob cheaper than a new one too, so leaving some cash for a bit of refurb

I wish that old ones would come up on eBay in the US. Mine is made almost entirely out of body filler!

Take it to the panel beaters and get it sorted

Mine has some rot and filler to (nothing I cant fix) but, I was staring at it the other day (its not fitted at the moment) and realised the dam things off a Super Dexta!

Dow, ow well, another thing to find and sort
