While we're on this subject what is the capacity of tires. 16.9x28, 16.9x30, 18.4x30, and 20.8x38 to be specific. Gallons. Either full or 75%. Can't seem to find it on google but maybe I didn't type the right thing in. Thanks.

Farmerboy,
Here it is straight from a table published by SAE.

16.9-28 69 gal 575 #
19.9-30 73 gal 609 #
18.4-30 89 gal 742 #
20.8-38 140 gal 1168 #

The weights are for water only
the 20.8s loaded with 5# CaCl per gal will weigh over 1500#

Hope this helps
Leonard

I forgot to tell you that the tractor was jacked up so the tire had no weight on it. Thanks.

Old, Are your numbers listed for the gallons considered 100% filled? because my 11.2x28's only hold 22-23 gallons with valve stem at 12 o'clock and tire standing straight up.

Don't know for sure. I got that info from an NAA owner manual so the only thing I can say is that if what I posted is wrong then Ford printed there manaul wrong.

Yes it does plus its a little on the yellow side from age. Its of course not a reprint but one that came with my 1935 JD-B when it was new. I keep it in a plastic bag because its getting to the point that the pages rip very easy and I want to keep it as good as I can
