Appreciated the time and detail you put in Mudski,

Yes definitely will be in contact with an engineer before I start any conversion other than a TD42

I will keep an eye out for a TD wagon, might be more convenient to buy a running wagon, transfer some fruit and sell the zd rig than a conversion. An option i'm fine with.

Good to know that the heating can be controlled, seems like a bit of work went into keeping temps down. Hopefully QLD hotter weather it still capable of keeping it cool.

Thats a useful tip to remember, do you run the same zd30 scoop, larger scoop, or no scoop?
