Start with the question you have
These are the questions farmers ask us on the phone before they buy, answered the way we answer them on the phone. No pricing, no brochure talk. Each guide comes from our own installs and support calls, and each one ends with the FJD kit it points to. If your question is not here, call or text and we will answer it, then probably write it up.

How auto steer works
The three parts, what a pass looks like from the seat, what you still do yourself, and which kit fits which tractor.
Is my tractor steer-ready?
How to check in ten minutes, what the three answers mean, and which FJD kit each one points to.
Autosteer for older tractors
What a 1970s or 80s tractor needs to run auto steer, which brands and models we put kits on, and how the install goes.
By machine
Autosteer for combines
Rear-steer setup, why most combines run without a wheel angle sensor, and what a full header is worth.
Autosteer for sprayers
Self-propelled and pull-type, where the angle sensor goes, and section control with the ATS.
Autosteer for swathers
MacDon, Case IH, Deere and Krone windrowers, swather mode, and why no angle sensor is needed.
Autosteer for articulated 4WDs
Versatile, Steiger and Deere 4WDs, articulated mode, and the angle sensor at the hinge.
Signal and running cost
RTK vs WAAS for farming
What pass-to-pass and repeatable mean from the seat, and which jobs each signal is good enough for.
What RTK autosteer costs to run
Every fee that can show up after the kit, which ones exist on an FJD system, and how to run RTK with no network fee.
How much overlap auto steer removes
What hand-steered overlap really runs, what RTK takes it to, and the math at your implement width in percent and acres.
