Poly Skid Shoes for John Deere 9930, 9935, and 9965 Cotton Pickers

Description

When you’re running cotton in less-than-perfect field conditions, having the right height control can make the difference between a clean pick and leaving cotton behind. Worn or missing skid shoes throw off your picker head’s height sensing system, causing it to ride too high or scalp too low. This pair of preformed poly skid shoes keeps your John Deere picker running at just the right level for maximum cotton recovery.

What You’re Getting

• Pair of durable polyethylene skid shoes that won’t crack or split like old rubber ones
• Preformed design that fits perfectly on your picker head’s height sensing system
• Smooth-gliding poly construction that reduces wear and drag on rough ground
• Direct replacement that bolts on using your existing hardware

Built for Real Farm Work

These skid shoes are designed specifically for John Deere’s 9930, 9935, and 9965 cotton pickers—the workhorses that have been the backbone of cotton operations for years. Whether you’re picking on black gumbo that turns slick when wet or sandy ground that’s hard on equipment, these pickers need reliable height control to maintain picking efficiency across varying field conditions.

Made to Last

Cotton picking is tough on every part of your machine, and skid shoes take constant abuse from rocks, dirt clods, and uneven ground. These poly shoes resist cracking and splitting better than rubber, and they won’t gouge or tear when they hit buried obstacles. The smooth poly surface reduces friction and wear while maintaining the sensitivity your height control system needs.

Good to Know

Installation is straightforward using your existing mounting hardware—the shoes are preformed to fit your picker head exactly. Check your height sensor linkage while you’ve got things apart, and make sure it’s moving freely. A quick tip: if your old skid shoes were worn unevenly, check your picker head alignment before putting the new ones on.
