For this with 385 planters , we find the closing disc, oem style , are no longer available from Landoll. We did a sweep and did locate a few 385 parts we purchased .

We did find an 18" coulter that has a larger center pilot and bolt pattern that will work IF the center wheel halves that bolt to the coulter are re drilled to the new pattern. We also purchased some new center wheels halves in limited quantity. This is for information, if you need help with some 385 parts, you can email B&G @ mailto:bgequipment@bellsouth.net" rel="nofollow - bgequipment@bellsouth.net .

Can't promise too much but have found some solutions to keep them running.

Landoll , when selling out of parts, it seems are not reordering most items - a heads up.

Can a person come up with any of the cast aluminum housings that Landoll went to....? Guess if I found one, I'd need twelve. I still run a 385, so I definitely need to store this thread somewhere in my memory banks. Thanks, Darrel

Thank you, Tbran! Is there a certain point or diameter that it is best to replace them at? (How do you know when they’re worn).
