It’s so nice to see the John Deere 8R Series North American version for Farming Simulator 19. The base for this FS 19 mod, is the original John Deere 8 series model that came with the game.
After the release of the game, Custom Modding went to work.
They basically took the model apart, replaced a whole lot of parts before putting it back together again. The result? An Americanized version of many players' favorite tractor.
