Going to treat my old 1090 Hesston to new guards and sickle/knives. It currently has the 2 piece tie guards with the stamped metal tops. They work fine, but are pretty well shot.
Nobody stocks these anymore around here, so thinking about switching back to conventional style. By the time I replace what I have, cost will be about same, either way. Nobody keeps stub guards either, so for ease of replacement, the conventional style is looking like my best option.
Anyone have a reason to stay with the tie guard style? Mostly cutting brome and some alfalfa, no rocks to deal with around here.
