oliver super 77

just wonder why this 77 has this style of front rims? the ones i have seen are open rims with the heavy hubs.

Maybe because it's a standard tread?

From what i understand they could be ordered with the heavy front wheels (the ones you describe) or the light ones (sheet metal) as seen here, although these are a universal implement wheel, the original olivers just had enough holes for the bolts.

I have a normal row crop S77. I didnt know they made them in standard, dont see many standard rigs here in row crop country.

The standard where the low profile Oliver's. And they where called a 77 Standard or 88 standard but where supers as for engines. Fewer of them where made also

i looked in my oliver book that is a standard tread. the row crop had holes in the tub for the cultivator pipes . the standard tread and industrial models didnt have the holes in the tub

deene is correct. They could be ordered with either the heavy or light front wheels.

Most standards I've seen had pressed steel rims,those look like they might be 18 inch front rims.Also has standard rear wheel weights.

All of the Supers I have seen had the bosses with threaded bolt holes instead of pipe holes.
The plain 66-77-88 had the holes.
