A crop pickup mechanism for a crop harvesting farm machine having an endless driven conveyor between laterally spaced rigid side members of a frame. The side members have connected thereto a forward shaft and a rear shaft mounted transversely of the frame on self-aligning bearings. A sectional crossbar is connected to the side member and is made as two rigid sections connected at a pivotal connection for relative rotation of the sections about the longitudinal axis of the crossbar. The shafts maintain the endless conveyor with substantial parallelism with ground of a field sloped in a direction transversely of the side members. The side members are thus relatively movable upwardly and downwardly as the wheels on which the frame is mounted travel over the sloped ground of the field. Crop-engaging pickup fingers on the conveyor pickup the crop being harvested for transport thereof on the conveyor.
