Yes, they can be a lot of work. Worth saving, though. In my case, we did the repairs without removing the centers, and were able to leave the locks in place.The tires are a bit big, but the Titan 13.6's were actually more money. They were long bar/short bar types also. |

| | Yeah, that's the one! Looks real nice to me. How do you keep a working tractor so clean? Those meats on the back look pretty big too, and the pa rims are in nice shape. Hope you have rim guard in 'em, not that nasty salt. |

| | those are some nearly new 13.6-28 I stumbled upon.. still have whiskers on them. and yeah.. I got lucky.. those PA rims were next to perfect. just had to wire wheel surface rust off and replace a lil bit of hardware. laoded with water and eco safe antifreeze. I think I only have 1 machine left with calcium in it... i usually swap them out to water and eco safe antifreeze when I do tire work. she has been dirty. earlier this year I had to rebuild the top end after my pushrods stuck , bent.. etc. she's a great mowing tractor.. |
