My father in law just purchased what looks like a factory 140 lowboy. It has turf tires front and rear. Wondering if anyone has ever heard or seen one. It has all IH parts and is a 65 model.

You could probably turn the final drives 1/4 turn to the rear on any of these tractors and put small tires on the front. You could even shorten the front spindles. Then you would have a "Low Boy" Dave.

I have two Hebard Shop Mules which are essentially lowboy Farmall A's with lots of other modifications. At first glance, it looks like an easy job to modify an A or Super A tractor and turn the final drives down to lower the tractor. However, after some study, I realized that the bolts on the final drive connection are not evenly spaced. The final drived are rotated on the Shop Mules to lower the tractor, just like is done on the Cub Lowboy, however, an adapter plate is required between the transmission housing and the final drive housing in order to do it. Having those made, I think would be quite an expensive machine shop job, or would require a very well equipped hobby shop, or other access to machining equipment.

Keith: To my knowledge there has never been a low boy 140, or as a matter of fact in the A, SA, 100 or 130 I suspect what you may have is turf tires front and rear that are smaller diameter than original equipment. I have a 130 with 12.4 x 24 rear and 6.50 x 16 on front and that gives an illusion of high clear. Tires make a big difference in the appearence of a tractor.

I had a 1066 with 20.8 x 38 duals. I once had all the wheels off and a neighbour came along. He said'"that's not such a big tractor."
