I am currently looking at two different heads for my R75. I am leaning towards a 5100 but I have a few concerns. First, has anyone ever used a 5100 in peas without a pea auger? It has the same feeding auger as a dynaflex also so has anyone used a dynaflex in peas without a pea auger? How convenient are the slow speed transports to use? I will be using these quite a bit getting in and out of fields and moving down the highway so I don't really want to end up having to go buy a header trailer because it's a pain in the ass to switch.
My second option is a Mac Don 962. I have the option to put a pea auger on it but I am also wondering how it would do without one.
I am leaning towards the 5100 simply for the fact that I know it won't have the feeding problems of the 962 due to the faring strips that are set up for a Gleaner to work like it should and also because the 5100 will work on my lateral tilt. The only problem is they are both in great shape but the 962 is a little over half the price of the 5100. What would you guys do and what should I be looking for on these heads? I have only been around newer Macdons and I also had an older honeybee.
