9030 bidirectional hay header

[BOBANDTOBY]

looking at putting a hay header on our 9030 would like to do 16 or 18ft what adapter do I need, everything I can find says a 2300BF is this the same for a 9030 as a TV140 Anybody got one that I could ask a few questions about ????

Looking around it would appear the the header mount for the 9030 is the same as the TV140. MacDon also makes a header for the 9030/TV140. I would be concerned about putting the 18' header on the bidirections as they do not have a very tall ground clearance (when compared to a swather) and will drag the hay on the undercarriage.

thats the census that I get too is that they are the same. Was asking a dealer that had 1 for sale and he said it was a TV140 adapter and didnt think it would work on a 9030 without some modifications but he wasnt positive on it so hoping someone replies that has one. I have heard of the ground clearance issue before and even our 8370 IH pull type crimper doesnt lift high enough for a heavy windrow
