So I know a lot of folks have Farmall 100/130/140s out there. Now I have never changed the width between my rear tires first of all, because I don't know how but secondly, because I haven't found a reason to. Hugh post earlier about tread setting on rear tires got me to thinking about it. I went out and checked and the distance between the center of the rear tires is 46 inches. That being said, I have no problems pulling my 2x14 IH 215 plow (no side draft issues that I have noticed). Is the current setting a good general purpose setting or should I make the effort to change it. I figure having the tires closest enables me to get more rows per acre in general anyway but I am just guessing. If I did want to change it, is it hard? Thanks Ramon

Ramon: First off your tractor must be already set wider on one side than the other. They move in 4" inkrements 44", 48", 52", etc. 46" indicates to me one rim must be on inside of wheel center and other on the outside.

To change wheel tread, you place rim inside or outside wheel center , then you can turn rim other way as lugs are offset. Then you change wheel centers from dish in to dish out and repeat rim settings. Each one of these setting changes each wheel 2".
