I remember when those rex boxes came out they were I thought to be a real good box and I have always enjoyed the super 717 I don't think there has been a more successful chopper

We had a 707 3point mount,,,,an our silage boxes were mounted on school bus running gear with drive train minus the engine,,,add a pto shaft to front of the bus transmission and the 707 had a aux output shaft ,,connent wagon shaft from transmission an when chopper was engaged the wagons would push ,,had to put wagon style steering on front of course to hook to tractor,,,but while neighbors were waiting for ground to dry we chopped,,,tractor pulling an wagon pushing. Was excellent,,,could use wagons in neutral also ,,,either way
