Ok guys as I sit in the 7580 disking, I can't help but ponder what it would take to graft a 4w cab onto this thing. Are the main frames the same width? Cables and hoods should be easy. Would the electric solenoid high/low valve fit on the original 7580 valve? Or just put the push buttons in the floor? Think it would be cool, and be much more operator friendly! ------------- 7095-685I at 255hp, 8070-225HP,8050-210Hp,8030 with 155HP,220 with 670T engine with A-pump, 7580, 185 with 140HP, 2-6080's,6070, S4 D17,wd45,CA,st34 agco, S1 D17 with 3500MK2 |

The 8000 cabs are much wider, so I doubt the mountings are the same. I don't think the 8000s had the buttons on the floor either. It's a nice dream, but I think it would take a lot more to get everything to work properly.

| PD valve on 4w220 and 8000's is different, and mounts on the side of the transmission instead of the top to make room for the cab. |

Are the transmission castings the same. Could one swap the 4w/8000 series valve onto the 7580's? Or to make it simpler, just swap a powershift into it!

the hardest part would be finding an 8000 donor cab cheap enough. They only made 175 220s ------------- Education doesn't make you smart, it makes you educated. |

4w305 should be the same cab. ------------- 7095-685I at 255hp, 8070-225HP,8050-210Hp,8030 with 155HP,220 with 670T engine with A-pump, 7580, 185 with 140HP, 2-6080's,6070, S4 D17,wd45,CA,st34 agco, S1 D17 with 3500MK2 |

my son and I may take a shot at putting a power shift into a 7580 this summer. If we do, I'll be posting about it on here. Darrel |

| Installing a Power Shift into a Power Director chassis will result in a speed reduction in road gear, and all HIGH Range gear selections....about 20% slower in all. |

PICS? My idea is to take a 8070 powershift fwa and make it a 7080 open station. Man that would look awesome!!! Now for putting a powershift into the 7580. According to the agco parts book the powerdirector trans casting is the same between7580 and 7060. So a powershift should "bolt" in. Only thing is the PTO/hydraulic straight shaft is different between the two. So if the 7060's is shorter, have a new longer coupler made to couple the drop box to the powershift. That was my idea. ------------- 7095-685I at 255hp, 8070-225HP,8050-210Hp,8030 with 155HP,220 with 670T engine with A-pump, 7580, 185 with 140HP, 2-6080's,6070, S4 D17,wd45,CA,st34 agco, S1 D17 with 3500MK2 |

| Wish I could get you some but he bought an 8070, so the 7040 didn't get used much for a couple of years and he traded it in on a new Rowse v-rake. I could of cried when I found out I would have loved to own that tractor. |
