Dad still uses one every year to pick 20-30 acres of corn. Mount ours on a std H. Works good as long as corn is dry and morning glories/wild pickles are non-existant. Husking performance depends entirely on exact breed of corn...one Pioneer good, another bad, same for Doebler's. You'll need special front spindles to mount the nose. Set your rear wheels dish out, all the way out. And set the picker on a wood or concrete floor when done, it'll settle in dirt and you'll be cursing till you get it mounted...they are heavy!!! I'd get you a picture, but I don't have a digital camera. If you're really interested, email me, I took some video two years ago of dad picking. Some footage from the side and from the wagon. We have an old IH steel dump wagon that we use...had to sneak around dad to fix the cylinder hose, but now he uses it every load. Unfortunately, my wife thinks I'm as stubborn as he is.
