I don't know about aftermarket discs but I would recommend having your covers machined down. It made a big difference on my new meters. Local case dealer was impressed They probably would have some good advice on if their is any aftermarket ones.

Yes mine have got pretty good groves in them .. do you have any problem with the 130 cell not selling if the soybean seed is big .. I was getting vacuum pressure was out of range last year finishing soybeans dealer was telling me my seed disc was getting worn and was leaking vac pressure
