What similarities or differences are there between a gleaner 800 & a M-F 9850 flex head & what is U2 reel all about? Thanks Dave PS, what is involved to put that 9850 head on a R-50 ?

think the 8000 and 9250 the same? Will have to lower the throat down , and put in panels for the side. - switch harnesses and auto height control, hydraulic lines,and of course the 50 must have the late hydraulic reel drive. And what width? A 500 would be a better fit...???
The U2 reel is a great reel - smaller in diameter and will work better than an orbit HC reel. Aluminum and flips over for less wrapping.
