Just so happens, in my pursuit of a spreader, I stopped over at my neihgbors house and he has 2 Big N.H. Spreaders, steel sides, wooden floors. Single wheel, pto driven, problem is the sides and floors are rotted out and the chains are shot, but all the drive and beaters are there. They were always kept outside. Assuming the frames are good, would it be worth fixing them up? Their probably 150 bu spreaders or better and their free. If the frames are good, I could do them over in wood, except for the ends that hold the beaters, just fab up some steal brackets for that part. Were these spreaders any good in their day? Sure seems like they rusted out a little too quick.

I would run .If all is wrong that you say the tube axles have to be shot .The biggest design flaw NH ever did was to put the tube axle up so that all the liquid would drain into it and rot it out cause there was no drain .

Yep,

You guys are probably right. I might go back over and look em over a little harder but now that I think about it, I did hear those stories about the axels. I'll look real hard and see and ck the N.H. dealer about the sides. One thing though, time and all considered, I dont need a free $1200.00 spreader!

Thanks for the input, if it pans out, Ill get back with some info.

Axles are a dumb design. Thin C-shape instead of square tube beam. Open to the top, they collect manure and rust out, bowing the wheels in til they hit the box. Local shop rebuilds many of them.

Check with your NH dealer. Years ago they had a warranty program- they would provide new steel sides if you paid the freight.

Hmmmmm. Floor shot. Sides shot. Chain shot... Check... So how long before the 'A' frame hitch on the front breaks off at the front of the box and the box tube axle breaks off? I have one of those old things too. Those sound like they're best left where they're too... What are they? 510's?
To be quite honest I often see old spreaders go through the auction sales around here for less than 500 bucks in working order. No beauty queens, but they work. How much are you going to spend on the free spreader? Although, a 'project' is one thing...

How old are they? NH used a synthetic floor for quite a while now. I don't know if you can replace the sides with wood. I bought one and got new steel sides from NH as part of the deal and put them on myself. Not too bad a job BUT when I took the old sides off the spreader started to bow. The sides are an integral part of the spreader that holds everything together and I think the bolts would just pull out of wooden sides.
