Anyone know what size (in gallons) factory installed liquid fertilizer tanks were on a deutz-allis 385 planter? Thanks, Darrel

forgot to mention, it's a 12 row 30, so should have 6 tanks on it, correct

85 gallon. You can get brackets and whatever size tanks you want at http://sprayers.com/plantertanks_pumps.htm" rel="nofollow - http://sprayers.com/plantertanks_pumps.htm

Russ, do you think the bar would handle the weight of 110 gallon tanks instead of 85's? Thanks, Darrel

I think you'd be fine with 110's as long as they are empty when you have the planter in transport position.

Thanks Russ. I was kind of thinking the same thing, Darrel
