Quoting Removed, click Modern View to see You can climb a good hill with one. They were meant to do just that and then folks started putting them up on flat ground to be more efficiant. First thing to look for on a used one is the condition of the pipe. Check for rot, and tire condition. Then inspect the structure and gear boxes and lastly check out what kind of motors it has. If they are old vertical ones you are probably looking at replacing them to horizontals. As far as the well goes you are probably wanting it to be pumping 800-900 gallon per minute at 40 psi. This may require rebolling it. I've been running used pivots for a while now and have good luck. You can update the old ones for far less that a new. In my area a new pivot is running around $80,000 to $100,000. The price for underground with wire is about $10,000 for 1/4 mile. I just redid a well and put in underground,and a used pivot moved and erected and a sprinkler package with rotaters and drop nozzles for just under $40,000 this fall. Hope this helps you.
