Picked a lot of corn with a JD 226 mounted on a JD 60 and it worked just fine as long as you kept the drive shafts true and tight and replaced the chain sprockets and chains on a regular interval. We did not have the clutch mod but I can tell you I have banged up my hands many times hitting the right side of the picker so the mod helped there. As a side, many times I would stand up while picking corn to see better and get out of the dust and heat for a period of time. That clutch mode would he a good thing to declutch without sitting down.

I would love to spend a couple of hours in a picker with a two cylinder JD picking some good river bottom corn.
