I went today and looked at a 1978 Gleaner K2, this thing looks like it just came off the showroom floor, everything works, even the sensors and alarms, it has the AC turbo diesel, hydraulic unloading auger, and heat & A/C. Well, I ended up buying it!! I am getting a spreader and a chopper with it, someone told me years ago that putting the chopper on for corn would be hard on the combine by slinging cobs back in the machine, is this true? I just want to know before i put it on. I'll get some good photos and post them on here.

My Gleaner K is for sale, comes with a KL238 corn head, needs a few odds and ends but overall its not too bad, 250 GM gas motor. Does a great job picking corn, if anyone is interested just reply back. I'm asking 3,000 for it. I am located in the western part of NC
 
I take my chopper off my F2 for corn and only run it in soybeans and wheat (don't bale the straw).

If you have all the parts there should be an accordion type shield that goes on the front side of the chopper to keep cobs from getting kicked back and behind the chopper there should be a canvas flap that hangs from a rod at the back of the sheet metal shoe housing to also absorb cob impacts.
