My distances are 17 miles between towns for the Ford 6610, and 400 miles for the Ford 8N. I shoved the 6610 front wheels together to clear my trailer's inner fenders, but am stymied about getting the wheel wheels far enough on the trailer to avoid rear weight bias of the trailer. I have to travel on 55 mph dual lanes US 1, and this IS NASCAR country. I am figuring the Ford 8" rear turned backwards, with a trailer type Vee section, and a two inch ball hitch to connect to my Ferris. Then welding up a clevis arrangement on top cener of the Ford's rear pumpkin, to attach the near new Mill Creek manure spreader. I believe the spreader is rated at something like 28 bushels. I am thinking that golf cart/lawn mower rear tires and wheels should speed up the spin rate to maybe half of a normal 540 rpm? And with an 8" Ford rear's weight and with it carrying the weight of the front half of a manure spreader, I expects decent traction. The rig will look like a car dolly with the front manure spreader sitting on it rather than the front of a car on it. The Ferris will be out in front not exposed to any lifting or roll over threat. I was hoping for some leads from you guys about hydraulic accessory PTO ( although I don' t know how much extra hydralic pump the Ferris has. Or some lash ups using gasoline lawmower engines working as auxillery PTOs. With no manure in it, I can turn the PTO drive by hand, and cycle the chains and sliding chains of the Mill Creek spreader. I have to claim total ignorance anout how to figure hydraulic pump volumes, pump cubic inches, rpm of pumps and motors, etc. The Mill Creek has two pullies and a 1/2" belt connecting the PTO to a rear facing shaft the runs it, so how much power does my homemade PRO need, if a belt is carrying the load now?

Today's Featured Article - Third Brush Generators - by Chris Pratt. While I love straightening sheet metal, cleaning, and painting old tractors, I use every excuse to avoid working on the on the electrics. I find the whole process sheer mystery. I have picked up and attempted to read every auto and farm electrics book with no improvement in the situation. They all seem to start with a chapter entitled "Theory of Electricity". After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
