    Anyone know what teh best 6ft heavy duty topper is?

    Currently have an 8FT trailed abbey but the pulleys have rusted and are gone. Abbey dont make these pulleys anymore so i am looking to see if it would be cheaper/easier to buy a 6ft Heavy duty topper.
    Only used once a year to cut down old high grass and thistles.

    I have to agree with you sami23. I have one of these toppers and it is very good. I cut under the electric fence wire with it too! I got mine second hand for €950 and it was like new.

    Major do a 6 foot heavy duty and a lighter version. Ours is the heavy duty and it was 1300 around 3 years ago if I remember correctly. Just be sure that you actually want a topper, we're considering a disc mower at the minute with the topping skids. Does a much better job at bringing pastures back. I guess you could say its more refined at actually cutting the grass than the brute of a topper that pretty much just breaks and bends it down.
