- Call for PriceCall to order: 785-820-8000. Fits all John Deere 60 & 90-series box drills and air drills. Overcomes the biggest limitation of these drills, which is lack of down-stroke as the coil spring relaxes slightly (only a teeny range of optimum spring pressure—like, 0.25")$155.00
2.5 inch. If you need taller pipes to improve gravity flow thru the secondaries, or just looking to replace rusted-out pipes or older pipes that lack dimples to redistribute seed & fertilizer more uniformly as it goes up into distribution head. Other sizes available.

Also fits Kinze 3000s with small/standard seed tubes (not the oversize ones -- you need the scraper-mount Quick Attach brkts for those). Kinze 4900s also need the QA scraper-mount.$40.00This Quick Attach kit fits JD 7000 thru ME5 (except BrushBelt ExactEmerge) & Kinze 2000s.

$20.00Quick Attach Bracket only for White 9000s (doesn't fit White 6000s & 8000s—use Universals instead for those planters)$28.50Quick Attach Keeton bracket for Kinze 4900s (all) & 3000s (with oversize seed tubes). (For non-EdgeVac Kinze 3000s prior to 2013, you can use the wrap-around Quick Attach brkt, which positions the tail about 1.5" farther forward for better performance.) Tail not included.$2.17For 1/4" OD tubing. Mur-lok Quick Connect, auto-lock, push ring towards connector body to release tubing.$30.00Fits inside Smallaire heads/manifolds as an option to improve uniformity of flow.$305.00Venting unit, fits into top of JD distributor head (divider/“pod”/manifold) in place of OEM plastic twist-on lid. (Doesn’t fit older JD head with metal lid, long J-bolt, and wing nut – but those old heads should be upgraded anyway; you’ll find a lot more convenient access & less plugging by getting rid of the J-bolt, and less seed damage & smoother product flow). Not recommended for 50’ & 60’ 1890s.$410.00New 2015 SeedMaster drills; older Amity drills; and other drills converted to Smallaire heads.$215.00Diffuser / venting unit, fits all New Holland / Flexi-coil air drills built in the past 15+ years in North America, and most modern CIH air drills. SeedVU® is the only device on the market that will stop excess primary-line backpressure, monitor for primary-line blockages, as well as reducing seed bounce.All About Hydraulic Oil Coolers & Snorkel Kits
Stay cool; prevent clogging
Hydraulic oil coolers function by circulating oil through a radiator connected to a fan, which forces air over the radiator. This process cools the hydraulic oil while simultaneously warming the air entering the lines, helping to prevent clogging from sticky fertilizers and seed treatments. When run with a snorkel, it helps remove humidity by pulling drier air from higher up, which is also cleaner air, so you reduce the amount of dust and debris that could cover the radiator. Snorkel kits are available with or without the oil coolers, for air carts and air boom applicators.
