We had a demo 670TT this fall and you can hydraulically lift the front of the combine up and down to make it lower for hauling but when your in the field you hit the switch and it goes up for threshing mode. Not sure if all Terra Tracs do this. I would think that 3.98 meters is close cause ours hardly fits in our shed also and our door is 4.26M

I guess with tracks you can't really let any air out of the tires to get more clearance.
Actually, as Bar D points out you can move it up or down by simply holding the header lift switch for a few seconds it will ever pump the suspension to the top or bottom depending on header button direction being held.
It will return to normal ride height at about 2 km/hr automatically.
I almost have to raise the front end to lower the unload auger if I back in the shop to clear door header 712, the unload auger is the highest point and my shop apron is slightly down hill making it worse.

13' 3" height and 14' 4" width this is on a 760TT with 28L26 rear tires the tracks measure 14' but the rear tires stick out just a little more. The height will be the same weather the front is lifted up or not with the tracks because the back does not move.

Well, not exactly.
Because the auger sticks so far behind the rear axle centreline if you lift using the track height feature the auger goes down, pivoting on the rear axle.
I sometimes back into the shop so I know this.

So to lift or lower the track suspension you just push and hold header height switch? Do you have to have the hydraulic lockout switch in road mode or some other trick? Or wouldn't the feeder house just go up and down? (760tt)

Simply hold the header switch in the up position, when the header gets to the top it will in a few seconds raise the combine.
Same thing down, you just need to put the header locks in first.
That's it.

Track comparo!

Ok, tell us what you will run...
Hard to belive you will change the colour.
Ha, no, I just meant I will get told here if those other systems have as good a suspension as a Claas.
The only thing I know for sure is they are not flat on top and therefore do not open access up like Claas does.
Otherwise, I know diddly about them.
Oh, yes I do.
They are an absolutely killer price option compared to Claas.:eek:
