Got two hoppers I beliveve are from a pre 53 290 planter. Casting is H1766-b. They are standard size, nearly identical to 246 seed hoppers. But these have what appears to be an adjustable gate mechanism at the bottom. Looking at the 290 catalog on jdpc, this hoppers appears as #5, but the narrow can says pre-53. I've never owned a 290, but have 2-246's. These hoppers are relatively good shape, and had an interior conical shaped "diverter"?? with one of them. ANy help on this matter would be appreciated.
 
On the jd290 manual, pg.34, i have two of the (5A) hoppers, w/complete lower mechanisms (13A), and one feed plate(16), w/one lid. Condition is great considering fert. Any thoughts on value, or do the 290 guys even use these?
